Donald Joseph Bedard appeals the district court’s 1 adverse grant of summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. Having conducted de novo review of the record, see Wertish v. Krueger, 433 F.3d 1062, 1064 (8th Cir. 2006) (standard of review), we find the district court’s analysis to be thorough and well reasoned, and we reject Bedard’s arguments for reversal. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
