Stephen C. Leonard, Fort Madison, pro se.

Considered by Sackett, C.J., and Vogel and Mahan, JJ.
Stephen Leonard, a former inmate at the Anamosa State Penitentiary, appeals the district court's ruling granting defendant's motion for summary judgment in his action claiming a constitutional violation based upon a retaliatory transfer. We have carefully reviewed Leonard's claims and the standard regarding retaliatory transfer set out in Rouse v. Benson, 193 F.3d 936, 940 (8th Cir. 1999). As a result, we conclude we can affirm the district court's ruling without further opinion. Iowa R. App. P. 6.24(1), (4).
AFFIRMED.
