[Unpublished]

Rudy Stanko appeals from the order of the District Court ¹ dismissing his civil action for lack of standing. We have reviewed the record and considered the parties' arguments, and we affirm for the reasons stated by the District Court. See Hughes v. City of Cedar Rapids, 840 F.3d 987, 991 (8th Cir. 2016) (“This court reviews standing determinations de novo.”). See 8th Cir. R. 47B. We deny Stanko's pending motion.
