and state law. Upon de novo review, see Withers v. Dick’s Sporting Goods, Inc., 636
F.3d 958, 962 (8th Cir.) (summary judgment), cert. denied, 132 S. Ct. 821 (2011), we
find no basis for reversal as to the grant of summary judgment on the section 1981
and 1982 claims. We also find no abuse of discretion in the district court’s exercise
of supplemental jurisdiction over the state-law claims after dismissing the federal
claims. See Quinn v. Ocwen Fed. Bank FSB, 470 F.3d 1240, 1249 (8th Cir. 2006)
(per curiam). The district court is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
