The Honorable Nanette K. Laughrey, United States District Judge for the

Western District of Missouri.

-2-

John Zapata appeals the district court’s1

 adverse grant of summary judgment in

this diversity suit. After careful de novo review, viewing the evidence and all fair

inferences from it in a light most favorable to Zapata, see Johnson v. Blaukat, 453

F.3d 1108, 1112 (8th Cir. 2006), we conclude that summary judgment was proper, for

the reasons stated by the district court. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

We also deny appellees’ motion to strike portions of Zapata’s reply brief.
