Before FAGG, WOLLMAN, and HANSEN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.
Sheri Sutton, for Nicola J. Sutton, a minor, appeals the district court's grant of summary judgment affirming the Social Security Commissioner's denial of Sutton's application for child's survivor's benefits. Having reviewed the record and the parties' briefs, we conclude that no error of law or fact appears and that an opinion would lack precedential value. We affirm the district court's judgment. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
