PER CURIAM:* * Pursuant to Local Rule 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in Local Rule 47.5.4. Frederick Samuels argues that the district court erred in granting the defendants’ motion for summary judgment and dismissing his claims that defendant Travis was deliberately indifferent to his serious medical needs and that defendants Gates and Travis, denied him the right to pursue his prison administrative remedies. We have reviewed the record, the briefs, and the district court’s opinion, and find that the district court’s grant of the motion for summary judgment should be AFFIRMED substantially for the reasons adopted by the district court.
