No. 83-2575.

United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

MEMORANDUM^**

Gregory Bernard Micklus, formerly a prisoner in the Arizona State prison system, appeals the dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 civil rights complaint. We affirm because Micklus failed to state a claim for violation of his constitutional rights. A criminal conviction is a matter of public record. Its disclosure is not a violation of any privacy right. United States v. Perlmuter, 693 F.2d 1290, 1293 (9th Cir. 1982); United States v. Nevitt, 563 F.2d 406, 409 (9th Cir. 1977), cert. denied, 444 U.S. 847 (1979).

AFFIRMED.

The panel unanimously agrees that this case is appropriate for submission without oral argument. Fed. R. App. P. 34(a); 9th Cir. 34-4
