Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Marixia Maldonado, Calvin Allen, and Jennifer Brashears appeal following the district court’s 1 dismissal and denial of numerous post-judgment motions in a civil suit Maldonado initiated when her job for Ozark Area Community Action Corporation ended. We find no basis for error in the district court’s denial of Maldonado’s motion for leave to file an amended complaint, see In re Hutchinson Tech., Inc. Sec. Litig., 586 F.3d 952, 962 (8th Cir.2008) (de novo review), or its grant of defendants’ Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) motion, see Hopkins v. City of Bloomington, 774 F.3d 490, 491-92 (8th Cir.2014) (de novo review); Topchian v. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., 760 F.3d 843, 849 (8th Cir.2014) (pro se complaints must be liberally construed). There is no merit to appellants’ challenges to the other district court rulings they identify, including the motions seeking to add Allen and-Brashears as parties, and the motion to recuse. The judgment of the district court is affirmed, see 8th Cir. R. 47B; and appellants’ pending motion to take judicial notice is denied.

1 . The Honorable Gary A. Fenner, United States District Judge for the Western District of Missouri.
