Before BYE, BOWMAN, and BENTON, Circuit Judges. ___________ PER CURIAM.

Gary and Joyce Burke appeal the district court’s1 adverse grant of summary judgment in their diversity products-liability action. Having carefully reviewed the record, we find no abuse of discretion in the district court’s exclusion of the opinion of the Burkes’ expert. See Bland v. Verizon Wireless, LLC, 538 F.3d 893, 896 (8th Cir. 2008). We also agree with the district court’s determination that, without such an opinion, there were no trialworthy issues on the Burkes’ state-law claims. See Bannister v. Bemis Co., 556 F.3d 882, 884 (8th Cir. 2009) (reviewing de novo summary judgment order and interpretation of state law). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. ______________________________

1 The Honorable Michael J. Davis, Chief Judge, United States District Court for the District of Minnesota.
