PER CURIAM.
Having unsuccessfully appealed to this court twice before, Ralph Read now
appeals from the district court's adverse ruling dismissing Read's qui tam action against
Central Plains Clinic and Medical X-Ray Center, P.C. Having reviewed the record and
the parties' briefs, we conclude the district court's ruling was correct and an extended
discussion is not warranted. We thus affirm the judgment of the district court. See 8th
Cir. R. 47B.
