CUDAHY, Circuit Judge.
Plaintiff-appellant Charles E. Hindmon appeals from the dismissal of his Complaint against National-Ben Franklin Life Insurance Corporation (“National-Ben”) and from the entry of a default judgment against him in the amount of $113,987.94 on National-Ben’s Counterclaim. These orders were entered by the district court under Rule 37 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure as sanctions for Hindmon’s failure to comply with proper discovery requests. Finding no abuse of discretion, we affirm the judgment of the district court.
