Before WOLLMAN, FAGG, and MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.

      Missouri inmate Jack L. Jackson appeals the district court’s1 adverse grant of
summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action against a nurse and a doctor.
Because the summary judgment record confirms that defendants did not know of and
disregard Mr. Jackson’s serious medical need, his deliberate-indifference claims fail.


      1
       The Honorable Stephen N. Limbaugh, United States District Judge for the
Eastern District of Missouri.
See Miller v. Schoenen, 

, 1309 (8th Cir. 1996) (to establish deliberate
indifference, inmate must show both that he had objectively serious medical need and
that defendants knew of and disregarded that need). Further, “[a]n inmate’s failure
to place verifying medical evidence in the record to establish the detrimental effect
of delay in medical treatment precludes a claim of deliberate indifference to medical
needs.” Coleman v. Rahija, 

, 784 (8th Cir. 1997). Accordingly, we
affirm the judgment of the district court. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

      We also deny Mr. Jackson’s motion for appointment of counsel.
