Tyrong Godbold appeals the district court’s ¹ adverse grant of summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. Following a careful review, we conclude that the district court did not err in granting summary judgment. See Johnson v. Blaukat, 453 F.3d 1108, 1112 (8th Cir. 2006) (grant of summary judgment is reviewed de novo). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
