Before JOLLY, SMITH, and DUHÉ, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:1

Roy L. Roberts, Louisiana prisoner #308035, appeals the district

court’s summary-judgment dismissal of his

42 U.S.C. § 1983

complaint.

The heart of his argument on appeal is simply that he did not receive

1 Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4. the care he believes he was entitled to receive. However, Roberts’

disagreement with the extensive medical treatment he received is not

sufficient to raise a genuine issue of material fact. Norton v.

Dimazana,

122 F.3d 286, 292

(5th Cir. 1997). Nor is there any merit to

Roberts’ suggestion that the defendants’ cumulative acts of negligence

are sufficient to raise a material fact issue for deliberate

indifference. See Stewart v. Murphy,

174 F.3d 530, 537

(5th Cir. 1999).

Accordingly, the district court did not err in granting summary judgment

in favor of the defendants.

AFFIRMED.
