Donald Jerome GREEN, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. M. SHARP, Defendant-Appellee, 357 F. App'x 845

MEMORANDUM Donald Jerome Green, a California state prisoner, appeals pro se from the district court’s

summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging that a prison guard violated his Eighth Amendment rights by fading to protect him from another inmate. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo. Toguchi v. Chung, 391 F.3d 1051, 1056 (9th Cir.2004). We affirm. The district court properly granted

summary judgment because Green did not raise a triable issue as to whether the prison guard knew that inmate Frazier posed a substantial risk of serious harm to Green. See Farmer v. Brennan, 511 U.S. 825, 837-39, 114 S.Ct. 1970, 128 L.Ed.2d 811 (1994) (holding that a prison official cannot be found hable for deliberate indifference unless the official knows of and disregards an excessive risk to inmate health or safety). Green’s remaining contentions are unpersuasive. AFFIRMED. This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
