Before LOKEN, GRUENDER, and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges.
                          ____________

PER CURIAM.
       Arkansas inmate Tyrone Ellis appeals the district court’s1 adverse grant of
summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action, in which he alleged that defendant
Aric Simmons was deliberately indifferent to his serious medical needs. Upon careful
de novo review, see Peterson v. Kopp, 754 F.3d 594, 598 (8th Cir. 2014) (standard
of review), we conclude that summary judgment was proper because, as explained by
the district court, Ellis failed to show that Simmons knew of his medical complaint
during the period of delay in treatment. See Fourte v. Faulkner Cty., Ark., 746 F.3d
384, 387 (8th Cir. 2014).

      Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                     ______________________________

       The Honorable Billy Roy Wilson, United States District Judge for the Eastern
District of Arkansas, adopting the report and recommendations of the Honorable
Jerome T. Kearney, United States Magistrate Judge for the Eastern District of
Arkansas.
