Jonica Haamid PHILLIPS, Plaintiff-Appellant v. Tim KEITH; Virgil Lucas; Tommy Glover; Pamela Horn; Corrections Corporation of America; Winnfield Correctional Institution, Defendants-Appellees
    No. 16-30974 Summary Calendar
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Filed August 22, 2017
    Jónica Haamid Phillips, Pro Se
    Ronald E. Corkern, Jr., Corkern, Crews, Guillet & Johnson, L.L.C., Natchitoches, LA, for Defendant-Appellee
    Before SMITH, BENAVIDES, and GRAVES, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

Jónica Haamid Phillips, Louisiana prisoner # 429550, appeals the summary judgment dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint against Pamela Horn. He alleged that Horn failed to protect him from an assault by another prisoner.

The district court did not err in granting Horn’s motion for summary judgment. See Hyatt v. Thomas, 843 F.3d 172, 176 (5th Cir. 2016); Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(a). The summary judgment record did not demonstrate a strong likelihood that Phillips was in danger of physical harm and was therefore insufficient as a matter of law to support a finding that Horn was deliberately indifferent. See Carnaby v. City of Houston, 636 F.3d 183, 187 (5th Cir. 2011); Grissom v. Patterson, Nos. 91-7137, 92-7244, 1993 WL 560256, 3 (5th Cir. Dec. 27, 1993) (unpublished but precedential under 5th Cir. R. 47.5.3).

The judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED. 
      
       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
