Donald Alexander filed a civil action in the Western District of Missouri seeking damages under 18 U.S.C. § 1964(c). The case was transferred to the District of Minnesota, which was presiding over related multidistrict litigation. The District of Minnesota 1 severed and dismissed some defendants from the action based on a settlement between the parties. The claims against the remaining defendants were remanded to the Western District of Missouri, 2 which ultimately granted the remaining defendants’ motion to dismiss. Alexander filed in both courts motions under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 60(b) to set aside the settlement-based dismissal. The Western District of Missouri declined to rule on the motion; the District of Minnesota denied it on the merits. In these consolidated appeals, Alexander challenges the Western District of Missouri’s dismissal, and argues that only the Western District of Missouri, not the District of Minnesota, had jurisdiction to rule on his Rule 60 motion.

We agree with the Western District of Missouri that Alexander’s section 1964(c) claim failed for the reasons stated by that court. We also conclude the District of Minnesota retained jurisdiction to consider his Rule 60 motion, and thus the Western District of Missouri did not err by declining to do so. See 28 U.S.C. § 1407(a); J.P.M.L. R. 10.1(a). Accordingly, we affirm the judgments of the district courts. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
