Appeal from United States District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Des Moines ____________

Submitted: May 19, 2020 Filed: May 22, 2020 [Unpublished] ____________ Before KELLY, WOLLMAN, and STRAS, Circuit Judges. ____________

PER CURIAM.

In this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action, Iowa inmate Randy Dean Jones, Sr. appeals the district court’s1 adverse grant of summary judgment on his deliberate indifference claim. Construing the record in a light most favorable to Jones, and drawing all reasonable inferences in his favor, see Cullor v. Baldwin, 830 F.3d 830, 836 (8th Cir. 2016) (de novo review), we find no basis for reversing the grant of summary judgment, see Holden v. Hirner, 663 F.3d 336, 342 (8th Cir. 2011) (inmate alleging delay in treatment must present verifying medical evidence that delays adversely affected his prognosis). The judgment is affirmed, see 8th Cir. R. 47B, and Jones’s pending motion for counsel is denied as moot. ______________________________

1 The Honorable John A. Jarvey, Chief Judge, United States District Court for the Southern District of Iowa.
