Western District of Missouri.
review of the record and the parties’ arguments, we conclude that the grant of
summary judgment was proper for the reasons stated by the district court. See Said
v. Mayo Clinic, 44 F.4th 1142, 1147 (8th Cir. 2022) (de novo review of grant of
summary judgment). We find no abuse of discretion in the district court’s denial of
Burgett’s Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e) motion. See Schoffstall v. Henderson, 223 F.3d 818,
827 (8th Cir. 2000) (standard of review).
The judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
