PER CURIAM.

       In this employment discrimination action, Angela Walker appeals following
the district court’s1 denial of her motion for summary judgment and grant of summary

      1
      The Honorable Nanette K. Laughrey, United States District Judge for the
Western District of Missouri.
judgment in favor of her former employer. After careful review of the record and the
parties’ arguments on appeal, we conclude that the grant of summary judgment was
proper. See Said v. Mayo Clinic, 44 F.4th 1142, 1147 (8th Cir. 2022) (grant of
summary judgment is reviewed de novo). We also conclude that the district court did
not abuse its discretion in declining to alter or amend its summary judgment order.
See Akpovi v. Douglas, 43 F.4th 832, 837 (8th Cir. 2022) (standard of review).
Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
