NOT FOR PUBLICATION FILED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS JUL 19 2022 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT MICHAEL DOBSON, No. 20-15903 Plaintiff-Appellant, D.C. No. 2:19-cv-05874-JAT-ESW v. MEMORANDUM* CHARLES L. RYAN, Director of ADC Prisons at Department of Corrections; et al., Defendants-Appellees, and DAVID SHINN, Director; et al., Defendants. Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Arizona James A. Teilborg, District Judge, Presiding Submitted July 12, 2022** Before: SCHROEDER, R. NELSON, and VANDYKE, Circuit Judges. * This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). California state prisoner Michael Dobson appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing his
42 U.S.C. § 1983action alleging deliberate indifference to his serious medical needs. We have jurisdiction under
28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo the district court’s dismissal under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A. Resnick v. Hayes,
213 F.3d 443, 447 (9th Cir. 2000). We affirm. The district court properly dismissed Dobson’s action for failure to state a claim because Dobson failed to allege facts sufficient to show that defendants were deliberately indifferent to Dobson’s deep vein thrombosis treatment. See Hebbe v. Pliler,
627 F.3d 338, 341-42 (9th Cir. 2010) (although pro se pleadings are construed liberally, plaintiff must present factual allegations sufficient to state a plausible claim for relief); Toguchi v. Chung,
391 F.3d 1051, 1057-60 (9th Cir. 2004) (prison officials act with deliberate indifference only if they know of and disregard a risk to the prisoner’s health; medical malpractice, negligence or difference of opinion concerning the course of treatment does not amount to deliberate indifference). All pending motions are denied. AFFIRMED. 2 20-15903
