Todd MCDONALD Plaintiff - Appellant v. Brett CARPENTER, Lieutenant, Saline County Detention Center (SCDC) (Originally named as Carpenter); Tonya Parker, Sergeant, SCDC (Originally named as Parker) Defendants - Appellees Waite, Officer, SCDC; Dick, Officer, SCDC; Balding, Corporal, SCDC Defendants
[Unpublished]
In this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action, inmate Todd McDonald appeals the district court’s 1 adverse grant of summary judgment. Based on the record before the court, we agree that McDonald failed to show he exhausted administrative remedies on the claims raised in the instant action. See Townsend v. Murphy, 898 F.3d 780, 783-84 (8th Cir. 2018) (reviewing de novo grant of summary judgment; boundaries of proper exhaustion are determined by prison’s specific administrative requirements). The judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
