ORDER

Patrick Flaherty appeals the circuit courts Judgment granting the Missouri Department of Corrections’ (DOC) Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings on Flahertys Petition for Declaratory Judgment. Flaherty contends that the circuit court erred in granting the DOCs motion and denying Flaherty relief, arguing that the legislatures repeal and replacement of Section 558.019, RSMo 2000, violates the ex post facto clauses of the United States and Missouri constitutions by eliminating a substantive right of Flaherty under the repealed statute to obtain an earlier release on parole. We affirm. Rule 84.16(b).
