Michael Contreras, Plaintiff-appellant, v. Daniel B. Vasquez, Warden, et al., Defendants-appellees, 48 F.3d 1227 (9th Cir. 1995)

Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit - 48 F.3d 1227 (9th Cir. 1995) Submitted Feb. 21, 1995. *Decided Feb. 27, 1995

Before: SCHROEDER, CANBY, and LEAVY, Circuit Judges.


MEMORANDUM** 

Al-Mu'min (Michael) Jihad-Contreras appeals pro se the district court's dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging that his due process and equal protection rights were violated during prison disciplinary proceedings. The district court denied Contreras' request for appointment of counsel and dismissed the action without prejudice following Contreras' request that the district court either dismiss the case without prejudice or appoint counsel. On appeal, Contreras challenges both the dismissal and the denial of his request for appointment of counsel.

Because the district court granted Contreras' requested dismissal without imposing any conditions, Contreras did not suffer an involuntary adverse judgment against him. See Unioil, Inc. v. E.F. Hutton & Co., Inc., 809 F.2d 548, 555-556 (9th Cir. 1986). We therefore lack jurisdiction. Id.

DISMISSED.
