PER CURIAM.

In this securities class action lawsuit, class member James Hayes appeals the district court’s1 order approving a settlement and its judgment of dismissal. Because Hayes did not timely raise (if at all) in the district court the issues he argues on appeal, we do not consider them. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. ______________________________
