Tunheim, United States District Judge for the District of Minnesota. record and the parties’ arguments on appeal, we conclude that the district court permissibly relied on a declaration submitted by defendant Diane Larson. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(c)(4) (affidavit used to support a motion for summary judgment must be made on personal knowledge, set out facts that would be admissible in evidence, and show that affiant is competent to testify on matters stated). We also conclude that summary judgment was proper. See Lloyd v. FedLoan Servicing, 105 F.4th 1020, 1024 (8th Cir. 2024) (standard of review). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. ______________________________
