PER CURIAM.
James J. Owens-El appeals the District Court’s 1 denial of his Federal Rule of
Civil Procedure 60(b) motion. Having carefully reviewed the record and the parties’
submissions on appeal, we conclude that the District Court did not abuse its
discretion in denying Owens-El’s motion. See Arnold v. Wood, 238 F.3d 992, 998
(8th Cir. 2001) (standard of review; Rule 60(b) is not vehicle for reargument of
merits, and movant must show exceptional circumstances to justify relief), cert.
denied, 534 U.S. 975 (2001). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
