FOR THE EIGHTH CIRCUIT

___________ No. 08-2863 ___________ Woodrow Anderson, * * Appellant, * * v. * * James Purkett, Superintendent, * Appeal from the United States ERDCC; Terry Bishop, RN; Deborah * District Court for the Carter, RN, * Eastern District of Missouri. * Defendants, * [UNPUBLISHED] * CMS; Charles Chastain, Doctor; * Donna Adams, RN; Tina Hayes, RN; * Tymber Spray, RN, Director of * Nursing, * * Appellees. * ___________ Submitted: October 21, 2009 Filed: November 9, 2009 ___________ Before MURPHY, COLLOTON and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges. ___________ PER CURIAM.

Missouri inmate Woodrow Anderson appeals following the district court's1 adverse grant of summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. Having carefully reviewed the record, see Johnson v. Blaukat, 453 F.3d 1108, 1112 (8th Cir. 2006) (standard of review), we conclude that summary judgment was properly granted and that the district court did not err in denying Anderson's discovery motions and his motions for appointment of counsel. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. ______________________________

The Honorable Jean C. Hamilton, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Missouri. -2-
