summary judgment to Nebraska prison officials in this 42
U.S.C. ยง 1983 action against Lincoln Correctional Center

The Honorable Richard G. Kopf, United States District Judge for the District
of Nebraska.
Shepards alleged that the correctional officers
retaliated

against George for filing grievances by refusing to let
Karan use padded chairs during visits and by denying
visitation on occasions when Karan did not wear a
brassiere. The Shepards also alleged that the
supervisory officials condoned the correctional officers&
actions by denying George&s grievances.
Following our de novo review, see Yowell v. Combs,
89 F.3d 542, 544 (8th Cir. 1996) (standard of review), we
find that summary judgment was proper. See 8th Cir. R.
47B.
Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district
court.
