MEMORANDUM Bryant Allen, a California state prisoner, appeals pro se from the district court’s
summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging constitutional violations and pendent state law claims in connection with the medical care he received for his broken thumb. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo, Lovell v. Chandler, 303 F.3d 1039, 1052 (9th Cir.2002), and we affirm. The district court properly granted
summary judgment on Allen’s pendent state law claims because Allen failed to comply with the presentment requirements of the California Tort Claims Act. See Karim-Panahi v. L.A. Police Dep’t, 839 F.2d 621, 627 (9th Cir.1988). The district court did not abuse its discretion by denying Allen’s motion to reconsider its
summary judgment because Allen failed to establish any basis for reconsideration. See Sch. Dist. No. 1J, Multnomah Cnty., Or. v. ACandS, Inc., 5 F.3d 1255, 1262-63 (9th Cir.1993) (reviewing for an abuse of discretion and setting forth grounds for reconsideration). We do not consider issues that are not specifically and distinctly raised and argued in the opening brief, including those relating to
summary judgment on Allen’s deliberate indifference claim. See Smith v. Marsh, 194 F.3d 1045, 1052 (9th Cir.1999). AFFIRMED. This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
