Before BOWMAN, BRIGHT, and LOKEN, Circuit Judges.
                          ___________

PER CURIAM.
       Arkansas inmate James Russell Munson appeals the district court’s1 adverse
grant of summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action against Faulkner County
and officials of the Faulkner County Jail.

       Having carefully reviewed the record and the parties’ submissions on appeal,
we conclude that Munson’s claims fail. See Lynn v. Deaconess Med. Ctr.-W.
Campus, 160 F.3d 484, 486 (8th Cir. 1998) (this court reviews de novo a grant of
summary judgment, which is proper only when undisputed facts establish that moving
party is entitled to judgment as matter of law).

      Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

      A true copy.

            Attest:

                     CLERK, U.S. COURT OF APPEALS, EIGHTH CIRCUIT.

      1
       The Honorable G. Thomas Eisele, United States District Judge for the Eastern
District of Arkansas, adopting in part the report and recommendations of the
Honorable J. T. Ray, United States Magistrate Judge for the Eastern District of
Arkansas.
