Anthony Moore v. Leann Bertsch

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

North Dakota inmate Anthony Moore appeals the district court’s 1 order dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action without prejudice under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A based on its determination that personal jurisdiction over the only named defendant — the Director of North Dakota Department of Corrections & Rehabilitation — was lacking. To the extent Moore has not waived any challenge to the determination as to personal jurisdiction, see Meyers v. Starke, 420 F.3d 738, 743 (8th Cir. 2005), we find that dismissal was proper, see Cooper v. Schriro, 189 F.3d 781, 783 (8th Cir. 1999) (per curiam) (de novo review of § 1915A dismissal); see also Johnson v. Woodcock, 444 F.3d 953, 955-56 (8th Cir. 2006) (discussing requirements for personal jurisdiction). The district court is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
