PER CURIAM.
North Dakota inmate Anthony James Moore appeals the district court’s1 adverse
grant of summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 lawsuit. Having conducted de
novo review of the record and considered the parties’ arguments, we find no basis for
reversing the district court’s well-reasoned opinion. See Murphy v. Mo. Dep’t of
Corr.,
372 F.3d 979, 982 (8th Cir.), cert. denied,
543 U.S. 991 (2004) (standard of
review). We also find no abuse of discretion in the district court’s denial of Moore’s
requests for an independent medical examination, see Ledford v. Sullivan,
105 F.3d
354, 358-59 (7th Cir. 1997) (given particular factual issues in case, determining
deliberate indifference was not so complicated that expert was required to establish
inmate’s case), and the appointment of a medical expert, cf. Sanden v. Mayo Clinic,
495 F.2d 221, 225 (8th Cir. 1974) (manner and conditions of court-ordered medical
examination, and designation of person to conduct examination, are vested in sound
discretion of district court).
Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. We also deny Moore’s pending
motions.
