PER CURIAM:*
Sergio Hiram Alvidrez, Texas prisoner no. 512255, appeals
the district court’s summary judgment in favor of Dayton J.
Poppell, Warden of the Connally Unit of the Texas Department of
Criminal Justice, Institutional Division (TDCJ-ID), and Connally

Newcomb. Having reviewed the arguments and the record on appeal,
we find that Alvidrez failed to present evidence showing that a
genuine issue of material fact exists that the defendants were
deliberately indifferent to a substantial risk of serious harm.
