PER CURIAM.
Dorsie Kee appeals from the district court’s1 adverse judgment entered after a
jury trial in this employment discrimination suit. We have carefully reviewed the
record and the parties’ submissions, and we conclude that Kee’s various contentions
fail, because (1) they raise matters for the first time on appeal, and no plain error
occurred; (2) they challenge matters committed to the district court’s sound discretion,
and no prejudicial abuse of discretion occurred; (3) they raise ineffective assistance of

counsel, which is not a ground for reversal in a civil case; or (4) they raise matters that
are simply meritless, and do not warrant an extended discussion. Accordingly, we
affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
We deny Kee’s motion for reconsideration of this court’s denial of appellate
counsel.
A true copy.
