OPINION
COLE, Circuit Judge.
R. Blaine Jorg appeals the district court’s dismissal of his federal malicious prosecution complaint, brought under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, against the City of Cincinnati (“the City”), Hamilton County (“the Count/’), and the County Coroner. The district court dismissed Jorg’s claims against the County and its Coroner, concluding that the Coroner was not a “policymaker” in this instance. The court also dismissed Jorg’s claims against the City because he failed to assert actionable conduct by the City. For the reasons set forth below, we AFFIRM the district court’s judgment.
