                                   ____________

Before LOKEN, BOWMAN, and GRUENDER, Circuit Judges.
                          ____________

PER CURIAM.

       Calvin Hammock brought an action under 42 U.S.C. §§ 1983 and 1985 and
Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act arising out of his detention and arrest
and criminal charges brought against him that were later dismissed. Upon
defendants’ various motions, the District Court1 dismissed some defendants and
claims under Rule 12(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (failure to state
a claim) and the remainder under Rule 56 (summary judgment). Upon de novo
review, see Bernini v. City of St. Paul, 
665 F.3d 997
, 1002–03 (8th Cir.) (Rule 56),
cert. denied, 
133 S. Ct. 526
(2012); Brooks v. Midwest Heart Grp., 
655 F.3d 796
, 799
(8th Cir. 2011) (Rule 12(b)(6)), and careful consideration of Hammock’s arguments
for reversal, we affirm for the reasons stated by the District Court.
                         ______________________________




      1
       The Honorable Charles R. Wolle, United States District Judge for the Southern
District of Iowa.
