James Roberts v. Faisal Ahmed

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit
James Roberts v. Faisal Ahmed, 9 F. App'x 563 (8th Cir. 2001)

James Roberts v. Faisal Ahmed

Opinion

[UNPUBLISHED]

PER CURIAM.

Former Nebraska inmate James V. Roberts appeals from the district court’s 1 28 U.S.C. §§ 1915A(b)(l), 1915(e)(2)(B)(n) dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint. Having carefully reviewed the record and appellant’s brief, we agree with the district court that, for the reasons the court explained, the complaint failed to state a claim. See Cooper v. Schriro, 189 F.3d 781, 783 (8th Cir. 1999) (per curiam) (de novo review).

Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. However, we modify the final judgment to delete the third paragraph entering judgment in favor of the United States of America, because it is not a party in this action. See 28 U.S.C. § 2106 (appellate court may modify judgment under review).
