PER CURIAM.

-- 1 of 2 --

Brandyn Phillips appeals the district court’s dismissal of his complaint1
asserting claims related to the revocation of his Minnesota driver’s license. Having
carefully reviewed the record and the parties’ arguments on appeal, we conclude that
the dismissal was proper. See Minch Family LLLP. v. Buffalo-Red River Watershed
Dist., 628 F.3d 960, 965 (8th Cir. 2010) (dismissal based on Rooker-Feldman
doctrine is reviewed de novo); Minn. Majority v. Mansky, 708 F.3d 1051, 1055 (8th
Cir.) (dismissal for failure to state claim is reviewed de novo), cert. denied,
134 S. Ct. 824 (2013). Therefore, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
