Before OWEN, Chief Judge, and BARKSDALE and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
       Demetrias Taylor, as representative of Iretha Jean Lilly’s estate,
Terrance Hamilton, and Terrance Lamont Hamilton, as next friend and father
of I.H., (collectively, Plaintiffs) filed this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action, asserting that

       * Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not

                                     No. 18-51066
confinement, and Nurses Desera Roberts and Kimberly Riendfliesch failed to
provide Lilly with constitutionally adequate medical care. Plaintiffs later filed
an amended complaint raising claims against Dr. John Wells for failing to
provide Lilly with constitutionally adequate medical care and failure to
supervise.    The district court granted summary judgment in favor of the
defendants on each claim. After carefully reviewing the briefs, record, and oral
argument, we affirm for essentially the reasons stated by the district court in
its October 2 and December 3, 2018, orders. 1

AFFIRMED.
