Before GRUENDER, ARNOLD, and KELLY, Circuit Judges.
____________
PER CURIAM.
In this pro se 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action, Arkansas prisoner Sylvester Barbee
appeals after the district court1 adversely granted summary judgment on his
deliberate-indifference claims. Having carefully reviewed the record and the parties’
arguments on appeal, we agree with the district court’s reasoning and conclude that
summary judgment was properly granted. See Beaulieu v. Ludeman,
690 F.3d 1017,
1024 (8th Cir. 2012) (grant of summary judgment is reviewed de novo, viewing
record in light most favorable to nonmovant). However, we modify the judgment to
be without prejudice as to Barbee’s claim against Wendy Kelley, because that claim
was dismissed for failure to exhaust administrative remedies. Cf. Calico Trailer Mfg.
Co. v. Ins. Co. of N. Am.,
155 F.3d 976, 978 (8th Cir. 1998) (modifying dismissal for
failure to exhaust administrative remedies to be without prejudice). The judgment is
affirmed as modified. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
