Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Tiran Casteel appeals the district court’s 1 preservice dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging numerous constitutional violations. Upon careful de novo review, we conclude that dismissal was proper. See Cooper v. Schriro, 189 F.3d 781, 783 (8th Cir.1999) (standard of review); Farmer v. Brennan, 511 U.S. 825, 834, 114 S.Ct. 1970, 128 L.Ed.2d 811 (1994) (to prevail on Eighth Amendment claim, prisoner is required to show that challenged condition presented substantial risk of serious harm and that prison officials acted with deliberate indifference toward that risk); see also Shade v. City of Farmington, 309 F.3d 1054, 1058 n. 6 (8th Cir.2002) (arguments not briefed are considered abandoned on appeal).

Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

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