PER CURIAM.

Christopher Prosser appeals from the district court&s1 denial of his motion to reconsider the court&s earlier order awarding costs to defendants, after summary judgment had been entered against Prosser in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. After carefully reviewing the record, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying Prosser&s motion. See Wilson v. Runyon, 981 F.2d 987, 989

1 The Honorable Scott O. Wright, United States District Judge for the Western District of Missouri. (8th Cir. 1992) (per curiam) (standard of review). Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47A(a).
