                      ___________

PER CURIAM.

    Nebraska prisoner George L. Shepard and his wife
Karan L. Shepard appeal the district court&s1 grant of
summary judgment to Nebraska prison officials in this 42
U.S.C. ยง 1983 action against Lincoln Correctional Center
correctional officers and supervisory officials.     The


       1
      The Honorable Richard G. Kopf, United States District Judge for the District
of Nebraska.
Shepards   alleged   that   the   correctional   officers
retaliated




                            -2-
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.

    A true copy.

           Attest:

                     CLERK, U.S. COURT OF APPEALS, EIGHTH
CIRCUIT.
