OPINION

COLE, Circuit Judge.

Oliver Caswell was a recipient of housing subsidies from the City of Detroit Housing Commission (“DHC”). When Caswell’s landlord initiated eviction proceedings against him, DHC terminated Caswell’s subsidies. Caswell filed an action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 against the Housing Commission and its director, alleging an improper denial of subsidies. The district court denied Caswell’s motion for summary judgment and sua sponte granted summary judgment to the defendants. For the following reasons, we AFFIRM the judgment of the district court.
