Before SHEPHERD, ERICKSON, and STRAS, Circuit Judges.
                         ____________

PER CURIAM.
       South Dakota inmate Terry Thompson appeals the district court’s1 adverse
grant of summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. Having carefully
reviewed the record and the parties’ arguments on appeal, we conclude the district
court properly granted summary judgment. See South Dakota v. U.S. Dep’t of
Interior, 

, 794 (8th Cir. 2007) (de novo standard of review); Dulany v.
Carnahan, 

, 1240-41 (8th Cir. 1997) (to prove deliberate indifference
to serious medical need, inmate must show treatment was so inappropriate as to
evidence intentional maltreatment or refusal to provide essential care); see also
Sanders v. Hobbs, 

, 190 (8th Cir. 2014) (defendant may successfully
defend retaliation claim by showing some evidence that inmate actually committed
rule violation).

      Accordingly, we affirm the judgment. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                     ______________________________

      The Honorable Karen E. Schreier, United States District Judge for the District
