Roosevelt Scott appeals from the district court’s 1 judgment for defendants after a jury trial in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 lawsuit. On appeal, Scott has neither identified any alleged error by the district court nor provided a trial transcript or requested one at government expense. See Fed. R.App. P. 10(b) (discussing appellant’s duty to order transcript); Primary Care Investors, Seven, Inc. v. PHP Healthcare Corp., 986 F.2d 1208, 1212 (8th Cir. 1993) (unspecific assertions of error are waived); Schmid v. United Bhd. of Carpenters & Joiners, 827 F.2d 384, 386 (8th Cir. 1987) (per curiam) (claims of error related to verdict being against weight of evidence are unreviewable without transcript), cert. denied, 484 U.S. 1071, 108 S.Ct. 1041, 98 L.Ed.2d 1004 (1988). Because this was a civil trial, Scott’s argument that he was denied effective assistance of counsel fails. See Glide v. Henderson, 855 F.2d 536, 541 (8th Cir. 1988).

Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
