Annotate this Case
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit - 978 F.2d 1264 (8th Cir. 1992) Submitted: October 21, 1992. Filed: October 26, 1992

Before FAGG, BOWMAN, and WOLLMAN, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.


Frank Richardson, a Missouri inmate, appeals from the district court's1  order dismissing as moot his claims for injunctive relief in this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. Richardson was transferred to another Missouri prison while his suit was pending. Having carefully reviewed the record, we summarily affirm the district court's dismissal of Richardson's claims for injunctive relief. See Martin v. Sargent, 780 F.2d 1334, 1337 (8th Cir. 1985) (holding that prisoner's claims for injunctive relief to improve prison conditions are moot if prisoner is no longer subject to conditions).

The judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47A(a).
