MEMORANDUM^* 

Arizona state prisoner Donald Richard Perry appeals pro se the denial of his motion to reconsider the district court's grant of summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. We review for abuse of discretion. See School Dist. No. 1J v. ACandS, Inc., 5 F.3d 1255, 1262 (9th Cir. 1993). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Perry contends the district court abused its discretion by denying his motion to reconsider the court's grant of summary judgment for defendants. We disagree.

A district court properly grants a Rule 60(b) motion if the moving party demonstrates "(1) mistake, inadvertence, surprise, or excusable neglect;" (2) newly discovered evidence; (3) fraud or other misconduct; (4) a void judgment; (5) a satisfied or discharged judgment; "or (6) any other reason justifying relief from the operation of the judgment." See Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b); McConnell v. MEBA Medical & Benefits Plan, 759 F.2d 1401, 1407 (9th Cir. 1985).

Here, Perry's motion did not raise any of these bases for reconsideration of the district court's judgment. Accordingly, the district court did not abuse its discretion by denying Perry's motion. See School Dist. No. 1J, 5 F.3d at 1262. On appeal, Perry also challenges the merits of the underlying judgment, but this issue is not properly before us. See Fed. R. App. P. 4(a) (1).

AFFIRMED.
