CONTIE, Senior Circuit Judge.
Plaintiffs Stephen Graham and Brett Lohrke appeal from the judgment of the district court dismissing their action brought pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The plaintiffs claim that dismissal was improper because they had sufficiently alleged that certain actions taken by the defendants infringed upon their right of access to the courts. For the reasons that follow, we affirm the district court.
