Before BYE, COLLOTON, and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges.
                           ____________

PER CURIAM.
      Inmate Loren Reyna appeals the district court’s1 adverse grant of summary
judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. We conclude that the district court did not
abuse its discretion in denying Reyna’s motion for default judgment, see Comiskey
v. JFTJ Corp., 989 F.2d 1007, 1009 (8th Cir. 1993); and that there is no basis for
overturning the district court’s well-reasoned determination that summary judgment
was warranted, see Schoelch v. Mitchell, 625 F.3d 1041, 1045-46 (8th Cir. 2010) (de
novo review). The judgment of the district court is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                        ______________________________

       The Honorable Roberto A. Lange, United States District Judge for the District

Simko, United States Magistrate Judge for the District of South Dakota, now retired.
