MEMORANDUM**
Leonard Richardson, a Washington state prisoner, appeals pro se the district court's summary judgment in favor of prison officials in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging that they violated his right to due process by placing him in administrative segregation for masturbating, and his right to privacy by allowing female correctional officers to view him from control booths and in the shower facilities. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
We review a grant of summary judgment de novo. Taylor v. List, 880 F.2d 1040, 1044 (9th Cir. 1989). We review for abuse of discretion the district court's denial of a request for discovery. See Barona Group of the Capitan Grande Band of Mission Indians v. American Management & Amusement, Inc., 840 F.2d 1394, 1399 (9th Cir. 1987), cert. dismissed, 487 U.S. 1247 (1988).
We affirm for the reasons stated by the district court in its "Order Granting Defendants' Motion for Summary Judgment," filed on July 27, 1995.
