MEMORANDUM^**

Appellant Marvin Miller filed this action pro se alleging a conspiracy between, inter alia, San Diego and Riverside County officials, the California Attorney General, and the Fourth Appellate District of the California Court of Appeals. Yet there lies before Miller a string of legal barriers too numerous to list. We mention but a few: absolute immunity for persons performing judicial functions, see Butz v. Economou, 438 U.S. 478, 510-13 (1978), including prosecutors, see Imbler v. Pachtman, 424 U.S. 409 (1976); Eleventh Amendment immunity shielding state officials acting in their official capacity; and the need to identify an official policy or custom before imposing liability on a government subdivision. See St. Louis v. Praprotnik, 485 U.S. 112 (1988). The district court's order granting defendants' motion to dismiss is hereby

AFFIRMED.

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