Before GRUENDER, ERICKSON, and STRAS, Circuit Judges. ____________

PER CURIAM. Jonathan Walker appeals following the district court’s1 adverse grant of summary judgment. After careful review of the record and the parties’ arguments on appeal, we conclude that the district court properly granted summary judgment. See De Rossitte v. Correct Care Sols., LLC, 22 F.4th 796, 802 (8th Cir. 2022) (reviewing de novo the district court’s grant of summary judgment). To the extent Walker raises other issues on appeal, we find no basis for reversal. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. ______________________________

1 The Honorable Susan O. Hickey, Chief Judge, United States District Court for the Western District of Arkansas, adopting the report and recommendations of the Honorable Barry A. Bryant, United States Magistrate Judge for the Western District of Arkansas.
