Henry Harmon v. Jonathan White

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

In this pro se 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action, Arkansas inmate Henry Harmon appeals after the district court 1 dismissed his lawsuit without prejudice for failure to exhaust administrative remedies.

Having carefully reviewed the record and the parties’ arguments on appeal, we conclude that dismissal was appropriate. See 42 U.S.C. § 1997e(a) (under Prison Litigation Reform Act (PLRA), prisoner must exháust available administrative'remedies before bringing federal prison-conditions claim); King v. Iowa Dep’t of Corr., 598 F.3d 1051, 1052 (2010) (reviewing de novo dismissal for failure to exhaust administrative remedies); Johnson v. Jones, 340 F.3d 624, 627 (8th Cir. 2003) (noting that PLRA requires dismissal for failure to fully exhaust administrative process). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
