PER CURIAM.
Lance Cole appeals a decision of the district court1 granting summary judgment
for the defendants in this action brought under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On de novo review,
we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. We deny
the motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis as unnecessary, and we deny the
motion for appointment of counsel as moot.
