Todd Steckelberg v. Brad Rice

878 F.3d 630

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

The district court 1 dismissed Todd Steckelberg’s complaints ■ for failure to state a claim. Steckelberg v. Rice, 184 F.Supp.3d 746, 759 (D. Neb. 2016), incorporated in Order, No. 4:15-CV-3069 (D. Neb. Mar. 24, 2017) (Doc. No. 23). He appeals. After reviewing the record and arguments for reversal, this court concludes that dismissal was proper. See Kruger v. Nebraska, 820 F.3d 295, 301 (8th Cir. 2016) (de novo review). As the district court ruled in its thorough and well-reasoned opinions, the complaints fail to state a claim under federal or Nebraska law: See Steckelberg, 184 F.Supp.3d at 754-59 and Order at 2-5, discussing U.S Const, amends. I, XIV; 42 U.S.C. §§ 1983, 1985(2); Neb. Rev. Stat. § 48-217; Neb. Const, art. XV, § 13. Further discussion would have no precedential value. Having jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, the judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

1 . The Honorable John M. Gerrard, United States District Judge for the District of Nebraska.
