PER CURIAM.

-- 1 of 2 --

Following an adverse jury verdict on Arkansas inmate Danny Hooper’s 42
U.S.C. § 1983 action involving excessive-force and failure-to-intervene claims
against two prison officials, Hooper appeals the district court’s order denying his1
motion for a new trial. Hooper’s arguments on appeal involve the allegedly
erroneous admission of testimony, but Hooper has not explained why this evidence
was prejudicial, or how the district court abused its discretion in allowing the
evidence or in denying his motion for a new trial. See Burris v. Gulf Underwriters
Ins. Co., 787 F.3d 875, 878, 880 (8th Cir. 2015) (standard of review); see also Kelly
v. Omaha Housing Authority, 721 F.3d 560, 562 (8th Cir. 2013) (appellant must
furnish reviewing court with all parts of proceedings below necessary for
determination of validity of any claimed error), cert. denied, 134 S. Ct. 1010 (2014).
The judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
