Before WOLLMAN, BEAM, and COLLOTON, Circuit Judges.
                          ___________

PER CURIAM.
       Inmate Andre Rahim/Hunter appeals the district court’s1 dismissal of his 42
U.S.C. § 1983 action after a pretrial evidentiary hearing. We grant him in forma
pauperis status, leaving the fee-collection details to the district court. See Henderson
v. Norris, 

, 483-85 (8th Cir. 1997) (per curiam). We find no abuse of
discretion in the district court’s Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(m) dismissal
without prejudice of the claims against defendant officers Eric Bowman and Arthur
Brown. See Edwards v. Edwards, 

, 298 (8th Cir. 1985) (per curiam).
Having carefully reviewed the audiotape of the evidentiary hearing, see Johnson v.
Cowell Steel Structures, Inc., 

, 478 (8th Cir. 1993), we agree with the
district court’s assessment of Rahim/Hunter’s claims against the remaining parties.

      Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                           ____________________________
