No. 88-15445.

United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

Submitted Oct. 25, 1989.* Decided Nov. 17, 1989.

Before ALARCON, O'SCANNLAIN and LEAVY, Circuit Judges.


MEMORANDUM** 

The district court judge was not required to recuse himself in this case. A judge is not disqualified from hearing a case because of a litigant's intemperate and scurrilous attack. United States v. Studley, 783 F.2d 934, 940 (1986).

After a review of the entire record, we affirm the district court for the reasons stated in the opinion filed August 31, 1988. Cf. Hayes v. Cuyler, 475 F. Supp. 1347 (E.D.Penn.1979) (conduct by prison officials and educational officers related to an inmate's participation in a vocational course does not deprive the inmate of a right, privilege, or immunity guaranteed by the Constitution and laws of the United States).

AFFIRMED.

 *

The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for submission on the record and briefs and without oral argument. Fed. R. App. P. 34(a) and Ninth Circuit Rule 34-4
