Erwin Jefferson, III v. NE Unicameral Legislature

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit February 11, 2016

Erwin Jefferson, III v. NE Unicameral Legislature, 637 F. App'x 243 (8th Cir. 2016)

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Erwin Jefferson appeals from the judgment of the District Court 1 granting defendants’ motion to dismiss the civil rights action he brought under 42 U.S.C. §§ 1981, 1983, and 1985, in which he challenged Nebraska probate proceedings. We have carefully reviewed the record and the parties’ submissions on appeal, and we find no basis for reversal. See Anderson-Tully Co. v. McDaniel, 571 F.3d 760, 762 (8th Cir.) (standard of review), cert. denied, 558 U.S. 1050, 130 S.Ct. 756, 175 L.Ed.2d 518 (2009). Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

. The Honorable Joseph F. Bataillon, United States District Judge for the District of Nebraska,
