Randall Todd BREWER, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. State of NEVADA, Defendant, and James Baca; et al., Defendants-Appellees, 465 F. App'x 667

MEMORANDUM Randall Todd Brewer, a Nevada State prisoner, appeals pro se from the district court’s

summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging deliberate indifference to his serious medical needs. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo, Toguchi v. Chung, 391 F.3d 1051, 1056 (9th Cir.2004), and we affirm. The district court properly granted

summary judgment because Brewer did not raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether defendants’ chosen course of treatment for Brewer’s chronic abdominal pain “was medically unacceptable under the circumstances, and was chosen in conscious disregard of an excessive risk to [Brewer’s] health.” Id. at 1058 (citation and internal quotation marks omitted); see also id. at 1060 (“Deliberate indifference is a high legal standard.”). Brewer’s appeal of the denial of his motion for preliminary injunctive relief is moot. See Mt. Graham Red Squirrel v.

Madigan, 954 F.2d 1441, 1450 (9th Cir. 1992) (when underlying claims have been decided, the reversal of a denial of a preliminary injunction would have no practical consequences, and the issue is therefore moot). Brewer’s remaining contentions, including those regarding the district court’s denial of his motions for an order of cremation and for a second medical evaluation, are unpersuasive. AFFIRMED. This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
