Inmate DeAndre Jerome Barnes appeals the district court’s 1 adverse grant of summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. Upon de novo review of the record, see Beck v. Skon, 253 F.3d 330, 332-33 (8th Cir. 2001), we find no basis for overturning the district court’s well-reasoned opinion. We also find no abuse of discretion in the denial of appointed counsel. See Ward v. Smith, 721 F.3d 940, 942 (8th Cir. 2013) (per curiam) (no constitutional or statutory right to counsel in civil case). The judgment of the district court is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
