review, see Krentz v. Robertson Fire Protection Dist., 228 F.3d 897, 902 (8th Cir.
2000), we affirm for the reasons explained by the district court at the conclusion of the
summary judgment hearing and in the court’s subsequent written order. We also
conclude that the sanctions imposed by the district court were not an abuse of
discretion. See Cooter & Gell v. Hartmarx Corp., 496 U.S. 384, 405 (1990) (standard
of review).
Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
