Ahmed Ajaj appeals the district court’s 1 order dismissing his civil rights action, in part without prejudice. Having carefully reviewed the record, we conclude that dismissal was proper for the reasons the district court stated. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. We further conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in declining to appoint Ajaj counsel. See Davis v. Scott, 94 F.3d 444, 447 (8th Cir. 1996). Accordingly, we affirm the judgment and deny as moot Ajaj’s pending motions.
