Before LOKEN, BENTON, and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges. ____________

PER CURIAM. Michael and Mary Lind appeal four district court1 orders disposing of their pro se action raising claims under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, and state law. Following a careful review, we conclude that the district court did not err in granting judgment for defendants. See Plymouth Cty. v. Merscorp, Inc., 774 F.3d 1155, 1158 (8th Cir. 2014) (dismissal under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) is reviewed de novo); Johnson v. Blaukat, 453 F.3d 1108, 1112 (8th Cir. 2006) (grant of summary judgment is reviewed de novo). Accordingly, for the reasons stated in the district court’s order, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. ______________________________

1 The Honorable Stephen R. Bough, United States District Judge for the Western District of Missouri.
