Before SHEPHERD, KELLY, and STRAS, Circuit Judges. ____________

PER CURIAM. In this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action, Arkansas inmate Christopher Thornsberry appeals after the district court’s1 adverse grant of summary judgment for failure to exhaust administrative remedies. After careful review of the record and the parties’ arguments on appeal, we find no basis for reversal. See Townsend v. Murphy, 898 F.3d 780, 783 (8th Cir. 2018) (reviewing de novo grant of summary judgment based on failure to exhaust). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. We also deny the pending motions for oral argument and to dismiss the appeal. ______________________________

1 The Honorable James M. Moody, Jr., United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas, adopting the report and recommendations of the Honorable Edie R. Ervin, United States Magistrate Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas.
