Before COLLOTON, GRUENDER, KELLY, Circuit Judges.
                        ____________

PER CURIAM.
       In this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action, Jimmy Brown appeals the district court’s1
adverse grant of summary judgment on his claim that police officer Gregory Harper
illegally seized him. Brown has also moved for this court to recuse itself.

       To begin, we deny Brown’s motion. See 28 U.S.C. § 455 (providing standard
for disqualification of judges). Additionally, after careful de novo review, we
conclude that summary judgment was properly granted. See Peterson v. Kopp, 754
F.3d 594, 598 (8th Cir. 2014) (standard of review); United States v. Carpenter, 462
F.3d 981, 985 (8th Cir. 2006) (seizure does not occur simply because officer
approaches individual and asks few questions, so long as reasonable person would feel
free to disregard officer and go about his business). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th
Cir. R. 47B.
                         ______________________________

        The Honorable Susan O. Hickey, United States District Judge for the Western
District of Arkansas, adopting the report and recommendations of the Honorable
Barry A. Bryant, United States Magistrate Judge for the Western District of Arkansas.
