Before BOWMAN, WOLLMAN, and BEAM, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.


Emmett Mitchell appeals the district court's1  dismissal with prejudice of his discrimination action for his repeated failure to attend his deposition. Having reviewed the record and the parties' briefs, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing Mitchell's action pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 37(d). See Boogaerts v. Bank of Bradley, 961 F.2d 765, 768 (8th Cir. 1992) (per curiam); Anderson v. Home Ins. Co., 724 F.2d 82, 84 (8th Cir. 1983). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
