In case 99-3796, Loyd Brewer appeals the district court’s 1 order granting defendants’ motion to dismiss his quiet-title action. Because most of his claims were identical to those previously resolved in bankruptcy court and affirmed on appeal, or arose from the same nucleus of operative facts, we agree with the district court that res judicata barred all but one claim in the instant action. See Costner v. URS Consultants, Inc., 153 F.3d 667, 673 (8th Cir. 1998) (elements of res judicata). We also agree with the court’s conclusion that Brewer’s remaining claim, adverse possession, failed as a matter of law. See United States v. California, 332 U.S. 19, 39-40, 67 S.Ct. 1658, 91 L.Ed. 1889 (1947) (rejecting argument that adverse possession applied against federal government). Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court.

In case 00-1678, Alan Brewer appeals the district court’s order granting defendants’ motion to dismiss his complaint in intervention in his father’s quiet-title action. Having carefully reviewed the record and the parties’ submissions on appeal, we affirm the judgment of the district court. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
