MEMORANDUM**

2

Stanley Ezell Singleton, a California state prisoner, appeals pro se the district court's Fed.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6) dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a district court's Fed.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6) dismissal for failure to state a claim, see Balistreri v. Pacifica Police Dep't, 901 F.2d 696, 699 (9th Cir.1990), and we agree with the district court that Singleton's complaint failed to state a cognizable claim under 42 U.S.C. § 1983.

AFFIRMED.1
