lllllllllllllllllllllDefendants - Appellees ____________ Appeal from United States District Court for the District of Minnesota ____________ Submitted: September 11, 2024 Filed: September 16, 2024 [Unpublished] ____________ Before LOKEN, GRUENDER, and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges. ____________ PER CURIAM.
Jay Nygard appeals the district court’s1 dismissal of his pro se complaint as barred by the statute of limitations, the Rooker-Feldman2 doctrine, and the Younger3 abstention doctrine. After careful de novo review of the record and the parties’ arguments on appeal, we find no basis for reversal. See Humphrey v. Eureka Gardens Pub. Facility Bd., 891 F.3d 1079, 1081 (8th Cir. 2018) (de novo review of whether statute of limitations bars claims); Kvalvog v. Park Christian Sch., Inc., 66 F.4th 1147, 1151-52 (8th Cir. 2023) (de novo review of district court's lack of jurisdiction due to Rooker-Feldman doctrine); Minn. Living Assistance, Inc. v. Peterson, 899 F.3d 548, 551 (8th Cir. 2018) (abuse of discretion review of district court's decision to abstain under Younger).
Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. ______________________________
