U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit · Decided October 6, 2010 · Wallace, Hawkins, Thomas
398 F. App'x 305

John Hardney v. Anthony Lamarque

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

The district court properly granted summary judgment because the uncontroverted evidence shows that defendants’ alleged acts or omissions did not cause Hardney’s untimely filing of a habeas petition. See Vandelft v. Moses, 31 F.3d 794, 797-98 (9th Cir. 1994) (prisoner alleging inadequate access to courts must show how inadequate access caused actual injury); see also Glenn K Jackson Inc. v. Roe, 273 F.3d 1192,1202 (9th Cir. 2001) (“[A] district court may grant summary judgment on any legal ground the record supports.”) (citation and internal quotation marks omitted).

Hardney’s remaining contentions are unpersuasive.

AFFIRMED.
