Darwin Burnett WALDEN, Appellant, v. Cornell SMITH; Mary Dick; Dustin Lutgen; Tom Conley, Appellees.
    No. 10-3073.
    United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit.
    Submitted: Feb. 4, 2011.
    Filed: Feb. 9, 2011.
    Darwin Burnett Walden, Mount Pleasant, IA, pro se.
    H. Loraine Wallace, Attorney General’s Office, Des Moines, IA, for Appellees.
    Before WOLLMAN, BOWMAN, and SMITH, Circuit Judges.
   [UNPUBLISHED]

PER CURIAM.

Iowa inmate Darwin Walden appeals from the adverse grant of summary judgment entered by the District Court in this 42 U.S.C. § 1988 action. After careful de novo review, see Anderson v. Larson, 327 F.3d 762, 767 (8th Cir.2003), we conclude that summary judgment was proper because Walden failed to raise a material factual issue on whether defendants substantially burdened his ability to practice Islam, see Patel v. U.S. Bureau of Prisons, 515 F.3d 807, 813-14 (8th Cir.2008).

Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the District Court. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. 
      
      . The Honorable Linda R. Reade, Chief Judge, United States District Court for the Northern District of Iowa.
