    Submitted: Nov. 4, 2015.
    Filed: Nov. 9, 2015.
    Phillip Dewayne Stewart, Grady, AR, pro se.
    Michelle Banks Odum, Humphries & Odum, White Hall, AR, Amber R. Schubert, Attorney General’s Office, Little Rock, AR, for Defendants-Appellees.
    Before SMITH, COLLOTON, and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM.

Arkansas inmate Phillip Dewayne Stewart appeals the district court’s dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action, for failure to state a claim upon which relief may be granted, and on the basis of sovereign immunity. After careful de novo review, we conclude that Stewart’s complaint was properly dismissed. See McAdams v. McCord, 584 F.3d 1111, 1113 (8th Cir.2009) (standard of review); Treleven v. Univ. of Minn., 73 F.3d 816, 818 (8th Cir.1996) (sovereign immunity). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. We also deny Stewart’s motion for appointed counsel. 
      
      . The Honorable Robert T. Dawson, United States District Judge for the Western District of Arkansas, adopting the report and recommendations of the Honorable Mark E. Ford, United States Magistrate Judge for the Western District of Arkansas.
