PER CURIAM.
Inmate Jessie Hill appeals following the district court’s1 entry of judgment
against him in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. Having conducted de novo review of the
record, and having considered the parties’ submissions on appeal, we find no basis
to conclude that the district court committed error (1) in dismissing some defendants
prior to service pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A, see Cooper v. Schriro, 189 F.3d 781,
783 (8th Cir. 1999); (2) in dismissing other defendants and claims upon these parties’
motions under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6), see McAdams v. McCord,
584 F.3d 1111, 1113 (8th Cir. 2009); and (3) in granting summary judgment against
Hill on his claims against the remaining defendants, see Schoelch v. Mitchell, 625
F.3d 1041, 1045-46 (8th Cir. 2010) (8th Cir. 2010). The district court is affirmed.
See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
