PER CURIAM.

-- 1 of 2 --

Arkansas inmate Hollis Martz appeals the district court’s interlocutory order1
denying his motion for a preliminary injunction in this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. After
careful review of the record and the parties’ arguments on appeal, we conclude that
the district court did not abuse its discretion. See 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a)(1) (appellate
jurisdiction); St. Louis Effort for AIDS v. Huff, 782 F.3d 1016, 1021 (8th Cir. 2015)
(standard of review); Dataphase Sys., Inc. v. CL Sys., Inc., 640 F.2d 109, 113 (8th
Cir. 1981) (en banc) (preliminary-injunction factors). Accordingly, we affirm. See
8th Cir. R. 47B.

The Honorable D.P. Marshall, Jr., United States District Judge for the Eastern1

Jerome T. Kearney, United States Magistrate Judge for the Eastern District of
Arkansas.
