PER CURIAM.
Steven E. Uhr appeals pro se from a final order entered in the United States
District Court1 for the District of Minnesota granting the 22 named defendants'
motions to dismiss pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6). In his
second amended complaint, Uhr alleged that the defendants engaged in a nationwide
price-fixing conspiracy to eliminate happy hours and other drink specials. According
to Uhr, the defendants' alleged acts gave rise to claims under the Sherman Act, 15
U.S.C. § 1, and the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO), 18
U.S.C. § 1962(c). The district court concluded that the second amended complaint
failed to properly allege the existence of a conspiracy or any predicate acts of
racketeering activity. Having carefully reviewed the record and the applicable legal
principles, we find no error in the district court's disposition of this matter.
Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court. See 8th Cir. R. 47(B).
