1Opinion of the Court
CALLAHAN, Circuit Judge:
William Palmer, a California state prisoner, appeals from the district court’s judgment in favor of prison officials in his pro se 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging violations of the Eighth Amendment. Following a bench trial, Palmer argues that the district court erred by (1) imposing an unconstitutional condition on Palmer’s waiver of his right to trial by jury, and (2) denying Palmer’s request for the appointment of counsel pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(1). We have jurisdiction to hear this appeal pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We affirm the district court’s decision.
