United States Court of Appeals FOR THE EIGHTH CIRCUIT ___________ Nos. 07-3652, 08-1252/2094 ___________ United States of America, * * Appellee, * * Appeals from the United States v. * District Court for the * Eastern District of Arkansas. Larry Thomas, Husband; Rosie Lee * Thomas, Wife, * [UNPUBLISHED] * Appellants. * ___________ Submitted: May 7, 2009 Filed: May 22, 2009 ___________ Before RILEY, SMITH, and BENTON, Circuit Judges. ___________ PER CURIAM. Larry and Rosie Lee Thomas appeal from the district court’s1 adverse grant of summary judgment as well as its denials of their post-judgment motions to quash a writ of assistance and for other relief. On appeal, they argue that the district court lacked subject matter jurisdiction. Upon de novo review, see Myers v. Richland County,
429 F.3d 740, 745 (8th Cir. 2005), we conclude that the court had jurisdiction 1 The Honorable G. Thomas Eisele, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas. under 28 U.S.C. § 1345.2 Finally, we find no basis for reversing the district court’s denials of appellants’ post-judgment motions. Cf. Lara v. Sec’y of Interior,
820 F.2d 1535, 1542-43 (9th Cir. 1987) (district court may issue orders pending appeal to enforce judgment). Accordingly, we affirm in each of these three consolidated appeals. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. Appellants’ pending motion for contempt is denied. ______________________________ 2 In particular, we find no merit to appellants’ jurisdictional argument that is apparently based on Pigford v. Glickman,
185 F.R.D. 82(D.D.C. 1999), aff’d,
206 F.3d 1212(D.C. Cir. 2000). -2-
