United States Court of Appeals FOR THE EIGHTH CIRCUIT

No. 03-1507

Gerald Thornton, Appellant, v. Bob Holden, Appellee.

Submitted: April 4, 2003

Filed: April 11, 2003

Before MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, BYE, and RILEY, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.

Gerald Thornton appeals the district courtÂ’s1 denial of his Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 60(b) motion. Having carefully reviewed the record, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying Mr. ThorntonÂ’s motion. See Arnold v. Wood, 238 F.3d 992, 998 (8th Cir.) (standard of review; Rule 60(b) is not vehicle for re-argument 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. 47A(a).
