PER CURIAM.

-- 1 of 2 --

Richard Otto Hansen appeals the district court’s1 pre-service dismissal of his
action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 for failure to prosecute and failure to comply with an
order of the court. After careful review of the record and Hansen’s arguments on
appeal, we find no basis for reversal. See Smith v. Gold Dust Casino, 526 F.3d 402,
404 (8th Cir. 2008) (standard of review). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R.
47B. We also deny as moot Hansen’s motion for appointment of counsel.
