PER CURIAM.
Taariq Irshaad appeals the district court’s 1 adverse grant of summary judgment
in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. After de novo review, see Ramlet v. E.F. Johnson Co.,
507 F.3d 1149, 1152 (8th Cir. 2007), we conclude that summary judgment was
properly granted because there was no genuine issue as to any material fact and
appellees were entitled to judgment as a matter of law. We also hold that the district
-- 1 of 2 --
-2-
court did not abuse its discretion in denying Irshaad’s motion for appointment of
counsel. See Stevens v. Redwing, 146 F.3d 538, 546 (8th Cir. 1998). Accordingly, we
affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
