PER CURIAM.
John Lee Ivy appeals the District Court's1 denial of his 28 U.S.C.
§ 2255 motion, in which he argued that his criminal conviction constituted
double jeopardy because of a previous civil forfeiture. We affirm as the
motion, files, and records conclusively show Ivy was not entitled to
relief. See United States v. Duke, 50 F.3d 571, 576 (8th Cir.) (standard
of review), cert. denied, 116 S. Ct. 224 (1995); United States v. Sykes,
73 F.3d 772, 773-74 (8th Cir. 1996) (defendant who did not contest civil
forfeiture was not party to forfeiture proceeding and therefore was not
placed in prior jeopardy); United States v. Clementi, 70 F.3d 997, 999-1000
& n.4 (8th Cir. 1995).
