Robin McDermott appeals pro se from a final order entered in the United States District Court for the Western District of Missouri1 granting the Defendants’ motion for summary judgment. In her complaint, McDermott alleged that she was denied the rights secured to her by the First, Fourth, and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution by virtue of the Defendants’ actions in connection with her arrest and subsequent prosecution on charges of obstructing a search and assault of an officer. She asserted a cause of action under § 1983, as well as various pendent state law claims. Having carefully reviewed the record and the applicable legal authorities, we find no error in the district court’s disposition of this matter. Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47(B). ______________________________ 1 The Honorable Dean Whipple, United States District Judge for the Western District of Missouri. -2-
