                               ____________

Before WOLLMAN, BYE, and SMITH, Circuit Judges.
                          ____________
PER CURIAM.

       Arkansas inmate Dale Bryant appeals the district court’s1 adverse grant of
summary judgment on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 claims. Having carefully reviewed the
record and considered Bryant’s arguments, we find no basis for reversal. See Mack
v. Dillon, 

, 622 (8th Cir. 2010) (per curiam) (grant of summary judgment
reviewed de novo). Construing Bryant’s notice of appeal liberally, see Hallquist v.
United Home Loans, Inc., 

, 1044 (8th Cir. 2013), we also conclude that
the district court did not err in its earlier dismissals of defendants Ray Hobbs, Wendy
Kelley, Michael Person, and Roland Anderson, see Cooper v. Schriro, 

,
783 (8th Cir. 1999) (per curiam) (preservice dismissal reviewed de novo); Edwards
v. Edwards, 

, 299 (8th Cir. 1985) (per curiam) (dismissal for failure to
serve reviewed for abuse of discretion); or its denial of Bryant’s motions for
appointment of counsel and to compel production of documents, see Phillips v. Jasper
County Jail, 

, 794 (8th Cir. 2006) (denial of appointment of counsel
reviewed for abuse of discretion); Stuart v. Gen. Motors Corp., 

, 630
(8th Cir. 2000) (denial of motion to compel reviewed for gross abuse of discretion).

      The judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
