for summary judgment, and Jones appeals. Following careful de novo review, we

agree with the district court that there is no genuine dispute as to any material fact,

and that defendants are entitled to judgment as a matter of law. See Fed. R. Civ. P.

56(a) (summary judgment proper when there is no genuine dispute asto any material

fact and movant is entitled to judgment as matter of law); Holt v. Howard, 806 F.3d

1129, 1132 (8thCir. 2015) (grant ofsummary judgment isreviewed de novo, viewing

facts in light most favorable to nonmoving party and giving that party benefit of all

reasonable inferences that can be drawn from record).

The judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
