PER CURIAM.
Minnesota civil detainees Kenneth Daywitt, Kenneth Parks, Nicholas
Luhmann, Joseph Thomas, Ramone Newell, and Allen Pyron appeal the district
court’s1 dismissal of their pro se complaint for failure to state a claim. After careful
de novo review, see Levy v. Ohl, 477 F.3d 988, 991 (8th Cir. 2007) (standard of
review), we find no basis for reversal. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
