Ernest Lee COX, Jr., Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Gregory HARRIS; et al., Defendants-Appellees, 362 F. App'x 860

MEMORANDUM Ernest Lee Cox, Jr., a California state prisoner, appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing as untimely his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging deliberate indifference to his safety. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo. Canatella v. Van De Kamp, 486 F.3d 1128, 1132 (9th Cir.2007). We affirm. The district court properly dismissed the action as time-barred because Cox filed suit after the applicable statute of limitations and statutory tolling period had expired.

See id. at 1132-33 (explaining that a one-year statute of limitations applies to any cause of action that was more than one-year old as of January 1, 2003). Moreover, Cox was not eligible for equitable tolling under California’s tolling provisions. See Cervantes v. City of San Diego, 5 F.3d 1273, 1275 (9th Cir.1993) (setting forth applicable tolling criteria). Cox’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.
