Clark v. ValueOptions, Inc.
Clark v. ValueOptions, Inc.
Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
Shannon Michael Clark, an Arizona state prisoner, appeals pro se from the
We affirm substantially for the reasons stated in the district court’s two summary judgment orders. Further, Clark failed to raise a genuine issue of material fact with respect to whether he left the prison with sufficient medication. See Far Out Prods., Inc. v. Oskar, 247 F.3d 986, 992 (9th Cir. 2001) (setting forth summary judgment standard).
The district court did not abuse its discretion by declining to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over the state law medical malpractice claim. See Fichman v. Media Ctr., 512 F.3d 1157, 1162-63 (9th Cir. 2008) (concluding that the district court did not abuse its discretion by declining to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over state law claims after granting summary judgment on federal claims).
The district court did not abuse its discretion by denying Clark’s request for appointment of counsel because Clark did not demonstrate exceptional circumstances. See Terrell v. Brewer, 935 F.2d 1015, 1017 (9th Cir. 1991).
AFFIRMED.
