             Submitted: November 16, 2015
               Filed: December 3, 2015
                    [Unpublished]

Before LOKEN, BOWMAN, and COLLOTON, Circuit Judges.
                          ____________

PER CURIAM.

       Stephen Curtiss appeals from the order of the District Court1 granting summary
judgment to defendants on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint alleging that Iowa officials
unlawfully detained him after a state court ordered him released from his involuntary
commitment at the Civil Commitment Unit for Sex Offenders (CCUSO). We
conclude that the District Court properly granted summary judgment. See Crain v.
Bd. of Police Comm’rs, 920 F.2d 1402, 1405–06 (8th Cir. 1990) (standard of review).

      AFFIRMED. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                 ______________________________

      1
      The late Honorable Donald E. O’Brien, United States District Judge for the
Northern District of Iowa.
