leave to amend the complaint. Following de novo review, see Lemay v. U.S. Postal Serv., 450 F.3d 797, 799 (8th Cir. 2006), we conclude that dismissal was proper for the reasons stated by the district court. We also conclude the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying leave to amend. See Marmo v. Tyson Fresh Meats, Inc., 457 F.3d 748, 755 (8th Cir. 2006). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. ______________________________
