lllllllllllllllllllllDefendants ____________ Appeal from United States District Court for the District of South Dakota - Western ____________ Submitted: September 27, 2022 Filed: October 4, 2022 [Unpublished] ____________ Before SHEPHERD, ERICKSON, and STRAS, Circuit Judges. ____________ PER CURIAM.

Clayton Walker appeals after the district court1 dismissed his pro se 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint for failure to comply with court orders. Following a careful review, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing the case.

See Smith v. Gold Dust Casino, 526 F.3d 402, 404 (8th Cir. 2008) (dismissal for failure to prosecute or failure to comply with court orders is reviewed for abuse of discretion); see also Comstock v. UPS Ground Freight, Inc., 775 F.3d 990, 992 (8th Cir. 2014) (dismissal as a discovery sanction is reviewed for abuse of discretion).

To the extent Walker challenges the earlier adverse grant of summary judgment as to his Ninth Amendment claim, we conclude that the district court correctly granted summary judgment. See Johnson v. Blaukat, 453 F.3d 1108, 1112 (8th Cir. 2006) (grant of summary judgment is reviewed de novo); Strandberg v. City of Helena, 791 F.2d 744, 748 (9th Cir. 1986) (Ninth Amendment does not create rights cognizable in a § 1983 action).

Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. ______________________________

The Honorable Jeffrey L. Viken, United States District Judge for the District of South Dakota, adopting the report and recommendations of the Honorable Daneta Wollmann, United States Magistrate Judge for the District of South Dakota.
