In this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action, Minnesota inmate Bobby Jefferson appeals the district court’s1 adverse grant of summary judgment based on his failure to exhaust administrative remedies. Having carefully reviewed the record and the arguments on appeal, we conclude the district court did not err in granting summary judgment. See Odom v. Kaizer, 864 F.3d 920, 921 (8th Cir. 2017) (reviewing de novo grant of summary judgment); see also King v. Iowa Dep’t of Corr., 598 F.3d 1051, 1052 (8th Cir. 2010) (reviewing de novo dismissal for failure to exhaust administrative remedies); Johnson v. Jones, 340 F.3d 624, 627 (8th Cir. 2003) (noting an inmate must exhaust administrative remedies before filing suit). Accordingly, we affirm the judgment. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. ______________________________ 1 The Honorable Wilhelmina M. Wright, United States District Judge for the District of Minnesota, adopting the report and recommendation of the Honorable Steven E. Rau, United States Magistrate Judge for the District of Minnesota, now deceased. -2-
