PER CURIAM.
James Allen Martin appeals the adverse grant of summary judgment by the
District Court1 in this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. Upon careful de novo review, see
Davis v. Hall, 375 F.3d 703, 711 (8th Cir. 2004), we conclude that summary judgment
was proper for the reasons stated by the District Court. Accordingly, we affirm. See
8th Cir. R. 47B.
