PER CURIAM.
Steven Blair appeals the district court’s dismissal of two private individuals,1
Patty Dory and Lori Anzaldo, who were named as defendants in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983
action. After careful review, we conclude that the claims in question are precluded2
The HONORABLE JOSEPH F. BATAILLON, United States District Judge1
for the District of Nebraska.
Dory and Anzaldo were incorrectly identified in the case caption as district2
court judges. We previously summarily affirmed the dismissal of two other
defendants, and Blair waived his claims against the remaining appellees.
