PER CURIAM.
Barry Lyndell Wallace appeals from the district court’s1 judgment, following an
evidentiary hearing before a magistrate judge, dismissing with prejudice his 42 U.S.C.
§ 1983 action. Wallace did not request a jury trial, and he filed no objections to the
magistrate judge’s post-hearing report, which the district court reviewed and adopted
in its entirety. We conclude that the district court did not err in holding that the
conditions of Wallace’s confinement failed to rise to the level of a constitutional
violation. See Smith v. Copeland,
87 F.3d 265, 268 (8th Cir. 1996) (analysis of
confinement conditions must be based on totality of circumstances). We therefore
affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
