PER CURIAM.

Appellate Case: 15-1436 Page: 1 Date Filed: 11/09/2015 Entry ID: 4334704 
Following an adverse jury verdict on Arkansas inmate Danny Hooper’s 42

U.S.C. § 1983 action involving excessive-force and failure-to-intervene claims

against two prison officials, Hooper appeals the district court’s order denying his

1

motion for a new trial. Hooper’s arguments on appeal involve the allegedly

erroneous admission of testimony, but Hooper has not explained why this evidence

was prejudicial, or how the district court abused its discretion in allowing the

evidence or in denying his motion for a new trial. See Burris v. Gulf Underwriters

Ins. Co., 787 F.3d 875, 878, 880 (8th Cir. 2015) (standard of review); see also Kelly

v. Omaha Housing Authority, 721 F.3d 560, 562 (8th Cir. 2013) (appellant must

furnish reviewing court with all parts of proceedings below necessary for

determination of validity of any claimed error), cert. denied, 134 S. Ct. 1010 (2014). 

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