Opinion

United States Court of Appeals For the Eighth Circuit ___________________________ No. 22-2157 ___________________________ George T. Sullivan Plaintiff Appellant v. Vetis S. Malone, Corporal, Varner Supermax; Brandon C. Carroll, Chief of Security, Major, Varner Supermax Defendants Appellees ____________ Appeal from United States District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Central ____________ Submitted: January 30, 2023 Filed: February 10, 2023 [Unpublished] ____________ Before GRUENDER, MELLOY, and STRAS, Circuit Judges. ____________ PER CURIAM.

George Sullivan appeals following the district court’s1 adverse grant of summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. After careful review of the record, we find no basis for reversal. See Morris v. Cradduck, 954 F.3d 1055, 1058 (8th Cir. 2020) (reviewing de novo grant of summary judgment); Cooper v. Schriro, 189 F.3d 781, 783 (8th Cir. 1999) (per curiam) (reviewing de novo 28 U.S.C. § 1915A dismissal). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. We also deny Sullivan’s pending motion. ______________________________

The Honorable Kristine G. Baker, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas, adopting the report and recommendations of the Honorable Jerome T. Kearney, United States Magistrate Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas.
