Wilbert Bradley, Louisiana prisoner no. 118934, appeals the jury verdict against him in his civil rights action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Bradley alleged that prison guards wrongly allowed another inmate to enter Bradley’s cell and attack him. Defendant Jacobs was dismissed, and Bradley does not appeal that dismissal. Bradley contends that the jury verdict for the remaining defendant was not supported by evidence. He also contends that the district court erred by not allowing two witnesses to testify, by allowing the defendant to file a second motion for summary judgment, and by denying Bradley’s motion for summary judgment.

There was evidence that the assailant deliberately misled the inexperienced defendant by telling him to open the wrong cell door and that the defendant did so in error. Bradley presented evidence that could have established the defendant’s negligence, but a reasonable jury could easily conclude that the defendant did not act with the requisite “deliberate indifference” to Bradley’s safety. See Neals v. Norwood, 59 F.3d 530, 533 (5th Cir. 1995) (discussing deliberate indifference); Granberry v. O’Barr, 866 F.2d 112, 113 (5th Cir. 1988) (jury verdict will be upheld unless reasonable jury could not reach that verdict).

Bradley offers only short, bald conclusions without factual or legal analysis with regard to his other claims. Consequently, those claims are waived. See Yohey v. Collins, 985 F.2d 222, 225 (5th Cir. 1993) (even pro se litigants must brief issues); see also Brown v. Slenker, 220 F.3d 411, 421 n. 9 (5th Cir. 2000) (summary judgment rulings mooted by trial).

The judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
