MEMORANDUM** 

Michael Overton, a California state prisoner, appeals pro se the district court's summary judgment in favor of defendant prison officials in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging that he was improperly placed in administrative segregation and that he was denied exercise during the five months he remained in segregation, which caused him to become mentally ill. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291.

We review de novo the district court's grant of summary judgment. See Barnett v. Centoni, 31 F.3d 813, 815 (9th Cir. 1994) (per curiam). After conducting a de novo review of the record, we affirm for the reasons set forth in the magistrate judge's findings and recommendations filed on January 29, 1996, and adopted by the district court on March 14, 1996.

AFFIRMED.1
