William Cody v. Douglas Loen

Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit

Decided April 5, 2012No. 11-2450UnpublishedCited by 65 opinions

1Per curiam

South Dakota inmate William R. Cody appeals following the district court’s 1 adverse grant of summary judg ment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 lawsuit. Having carefully reviewed the record relevant to the many rulings Cody challenges on appeal, we find no basis for reversal, including no basis for overturning the pre-service dismissal of two claims, see Cooper v. Schriro, 189 F.3d 781, 783 (8th Cir.1999) (per curiam) (de novo review); the dismissal of three defendants under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(m) for insufficient service of process, see Mack v. Dillon, 594 F.3d 620, 622 (8th Cir.2010)…
