Curtis Renee Jackson, a California state prisoner, appeals pro se from the
district court’s summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging
deliberate indifference to his serious medical needs. We have jurisdiction under 28
U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo. Toguchi v. Chung, 391 F.3d 1051, 1056 (9th

Cir. 2004). We affirm.
The district court properly granted summary judgment because Jackson
failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether defendants were
deliberately indifferent to Jackson’s urinary tract infection. See id. at 1057-60 (a
prison official acts with deliberate indifference only if he or she knows of and
disregards an excessive risk to the prisoner’s health; negligence is insufficient to
establish deliberate indifference).
AFFIRMED.
