PER CURIAM.
Marc Bakambia appeals following an adverse grant of summary judgment in
his civil rights action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Upon careful review, we affirm the

-- 1 of 2 --

grant of summary judgment for the reasons stated by the district court.1 See Moyle
v. Anderson, 571 F.3d 814, 817 (8th Cir. 2009). We also conclude the district court
did not err in ruling on the summary judgment motion without first referring it to a
magistrate judge, see 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1), in denying Bakambia’s motions for
appointment of counsel, see Stevens v. Redwing, 146 F.3d 538, 546 (8th Cir. 1998),
or in denying Bakambia leave to file a supplemental declaration, see Huggins v.
FedEx Ground Package Sys., 592 F.3d 853, 857 (8th Cir. 2010).
Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
