LASHER v. NEBRASKA STATE BOARD OF PHARMACY NE BOP 68508 MD 68508 (2019)

[Unpublished]

Lena Lasher appeals the district court’s ¹ preservice dismissal of her pro se 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint alleging her constitutional rights were violated in a Nebraska State Board of Pharmacy disciplinary proceeding. Upon de novo review of the record, we agree with the district court that Lasher’s complaint did not state any viable claims. See Moore v. Sims, 200 F.3d 1170, 1171 (8th Cir. 2000) (per curiam) (de novo review of 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) preservice dismissal); Cooper v. Schriro, 189 F.3d 781, 783 (8th Cir. 1999) (per curiam) (de novo review of 28 U.S.C. § 1915A preservice dismissal). We also conclude that the district court did not violate Lasher’s rights by dismissing her complaint preservice or by not sua sponte granting her leave to amend her complaint. See Christiansen v. Clarke, 147 F.3d 655, 657-59 (8th Cir. 1998) (rejecting argument that § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii) is unconstitutional because it authorizes preservice dismissal of indigent prisoners’ claims without leave to amend). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
