OPINION McKEE, Chief Judge. Darrell Ober appeals the district court’s dismissal of the action he brought under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 in which Ober alleged that the defendants illegally retaliated against him for exercising his First Amendment rights of free speech. We will affirm. In his “Statement of Questions Presented,” Ober raises the following four claims: “
(1) Whether the trial Court violated the applicable Standard of Review;
(2) Whether Ober violated any interests by talking with his attorney?
(3) Whether Ober suffered retaliation for exercising his right to seek the advice of counsel? [and]
(4) Whether Ober made out claims of his federally guaranteed rights?” Appellant’s Br. at 2. We exercise plenary review over the district court’s grant of
summary judgment in favor of the defendants, and apply the same test the district court should have applied. Hill v. City of Scranton, 411 F.3d 118, 124 (3d Cir.2005). We therefore must review the record as a whole, “draw[ing] all reasonable inferences in favor of the non-moving party,” without making credibility determinations or weighing the evidence. Id. Although some of the issues presented in the “Statement of Questions Presented” are less than clear, it is clear that Ober is arguing that the district court erred in numerous ways in granting
summary judgment to the defendants and dismissing his complaint. We have reviewed this record and the thorough and well reasoned Memorandum filed by the district court on December 18, 2007, addressing the merits of Ober’s claim, as well as the equally well reasoned Memorandum filed on July 21, 2008, addressing the Defendants’ renewed motion for
summary judgment. See App. 18-68, 70 to 78. Although Ober’s brief is quite dismissive of the district court’s analysis, we believe there is little that we can add to that court’s thoughtful explanation of why the Defendants are entitled to judgment as a matter of law. We will therefore affirm the district court’s grant of
summary judgment substantially for the reasons set forth by the district court in its thoughtful Memoranda.
