TABOR, J.

Richard Harden appeals the district court’s grant of summary judgment to the defendants in both his actions in equity and at law. The court determined as a matter of law no binding oral contract for the sale of an acreage existed between Harden and land owner Gary Porter.

After a careful review of the record, the parties’ briefs, the applicable law, and the district court’s sound analysis, we conclude the summary judgment rulings should be affirmed without opinion pursuant to Iowa Rule of Appellate Procedure 6.1203 (a) and (d).

AFFIRMED.
