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

PER CURIAM.
       Arkansas inmate Jerome Bargo appeals the district court’s1 adverse grant of
summary judgment on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 claims. Upon consideration of Bargo’s
arguments and de novo review of the record, we conclude that summary judgment
was properly granted. See Mack v. Dillon, 594 F.3d 620, 622 (8th Cir. 2010) (per
curiam) (standard of review). We also conclude that the district court did not abuse
its discretion in denying leave to amend. See Mountain Home Flight Serv., Inc. v.
Baxter Cnty., Ark., 758 F.3d 1038, 1045 (8th Cir. 2014) (standard of review).
Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                        ______________________________

      1
       The Honorable Susan Webber Wright, United States District Judge for the
Eastern District of Arkansas, adopting the report and recommendations of the
Honorable H. David Young, United States Magistrate Judge for the Eastern District
of Arkansas
