Before BYE, COLLOTON, and GRUENDER, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.


       Spencer Pierce appeals the district court’s1 adverse grant of summary judgment
in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. Upon careful de novo review, see Hartsfield v.
Nichols, 511 F.3d 826, 829 (8th Cir. 2008), we find no basis for reversal.
Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                       ______________________________



      1
       The Honorable John A. Jarvey, United States District Judge for the Southern
District of Iowa.
