[Unpublished]
Arkansas inmate KeOndra M. Chestang appeals the district court’s 1 adverse grant of summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. Upon de novo review of the summary judgment record, see Peterson v. Kopp, 754 F.3d 594, 598 (8th Cir. 2014) (standard of review), we find no basis for overturning the district court’s thoughtful analysis of his claims of deliberate indifference.2 The judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
FOOTNOTES
1. The Honorable Susan Webber Wright, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas, adopting the report and recommendations of the Honorable Patricia S. Harris, United States Magistrate Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas.
2. The new claims Chestang mentions are not properly before this court. See Stone v. Harry, 364 F.3d 912, 914-15 (8th Cir. 2004).
PER CURIAM.
