PER CURIAM.
Federal inmate Michael Simpson brought this pro se action under Bivens v. Six
Unknown Named Agents of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388 (1971), asserting
medical deliberate-indifference claims, among other claims. Simpson appeals after
the district court1 denied his motion for a preliminary injunction, concluded that all
of his claims failed as a matter of law, granted defendants’ motion to dismiss or for
summary judgment, and entered judgment dismissing the case with prejudice. Also
pending are Simpson’s motions to “change the style of the case,” and for
reconsideration of an order entered by the clerk’s office.
Upon careful review, we first conclude that the district court did not abuse its
discretion in denying Simpson’s motion for a preliminary injunction. See Dataphase
Sys. Inc. v. C.L. Sys., Inc., 640 F.2d 109, 114 (8th Cir. 1981) (en banc). We further
conclude that the district court appropriately disposed of Simpson’s claims, because,
among other reasons, the record established beyond genuine dispute that defendants
were not deliberately indifferent to Simpson’s serious medical needs. See Allard v.
Baldwin, 779 F.3d 768, 771-72 (8th Cir. 2015).
Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. In addition,
Simpson’s pending motions are denied.
