MEMORANDUM **

Kevin Allen (Allen) is a California state prisoner at Pelican Bay State Prison. Allen appeals pro se the district court’s summary judgment dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action claiming prison officials violated his constitutional rights by using excessive force and acting with deliberate indifference to his serious medical needs when they used pepper spray while extracting another inmate from a nearby cell. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review the grant of summary judgment de novo, Beene v. Terhune, 380 F.3d 1149, 1150 (9th Cir.2004), and we affirm.
