ORDER AND JUDGMENT*

Before LUCERO, McKAY, and ANDERSON, Circuit Judges.

	After examining the briefs and appellate record, this panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist the determination of this appeal.  See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2); 10th Cir. R. 34.1(G).  The case is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.
	Plaintiff Raymond F. Stansbury filed a 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint alleging that his participation in Kansas’ Sexual Abuse Treatment Program (SATP) was unconstitutional.  Mr. Stansbury also filed an emergency motion for temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction.  Appellant Jim C. Elliott then moved to intervene in the case and his motion was granted.  The district court originally granted a temporary restraining order because of the similarities between the instant case and Lile v. McKune, 24 F. Supp. 2d 1152 (D. Kan. 1998).  The district court in Lile held that the SATP violated the plaintiff’s constitutional rights under the Fifth Amendment, id. at 1160, and the district court’s decision was affirmed by this court in Lile v. McKune, 224 F.3d 1175, 1192 (10th Cir. 2000).  
	On June 10, 2002, the Supreme Court issued its decision in McKune v. Lile, 536 U.S. 24, 29 (2002), in which the Court held that participation in the SATP did not violate the Constitution, reversing this court’s prior decision.  After the McKune decision, the district court entered an order giving the parties twenty days to show cause as to why their case should not be dismissed.  Because the district court did not receive any response to the show cause order by any of the plaintiffs, including Mr. Elliott, the court dismissed the case based on the holding in McKune.  Mr. Elliott, proceeding pro se, appeals the district court’s decision.  
	Mr. Elliott has not presented any argument to distinguish himself from the plaintiff in McKune.  In fact, before the Supreme Court’s reversal, he argued to the district court that he was similarly situated to the plaintiff in McKune.  We agree with the district court that the holding in McKune is dispositive in this case.  Mr. Elliott raises a number of other issues in this appeal that were not raised before the district court.  We decline to exercise our discretion to depart from our general rule that we will not consider an issue that was not raised in the district court.  See Walker v. Mather (In re Walker), 959 F.2d 894, 896 (10th Cir. 1992).  The judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
