PER CURIAM.

Federal inmate Michael Simpson brought this pro se action under Bivens v. Six

Unknown Named Agents of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388 (1971), asserting

medical deliberate-indifference claims, among other claims. Simpson appeals after

Appellate Case: 15-1775 Page: 1 Date Filed: 12/21/2015 Entry ID: 4348401 
the district court1

 denied his motion for a preliminary injunction, concluded that all

of his claims failed as a matter of law, granted defendants’ motion to dismiss or for

summary judgment, and entered judgment dismissing the case with prejudice. Also

pending are Simpson’s motions to “change the style of the case,” and for

reconsideration of an order entered by the clerk’s office.

Upon careful review, we first conclude that the district court did not abuse its

discretion in denying Simpson’s motion for a preliminary injunction. See Dataphase

Sys. Inc. v. C.L. Sys., Inc., 640 F.2d 109, 114 (8th Cir. 1981) (en banc). We further

conclude that the district court appropriately disposed of Simpson’s claims, because,

among other reasons, the record established beyond genuine dispute that defendants

were not deliberately indifferent to Simpson’s serious medical needs. See Allard v.

Baldwin, 779 F.3d 768, 771-72 (8th Cir. 2015).

Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. In addition,

Simpson’s pending motions are denied.
