    MEMORANDUM*
    DANIEL STONE; ROBERT
    AMBROSELLI,
    Defendants-Appellees.
    Appeal from the United States District Court
    for the Eastern District of California
    Garland E. Burrell, Jr., District Judge, Presiding
    Submitted October 23, 2017**
    Before:      McKEOWN, WATFORD, and FRIEDLAND, Circuit Judges.
    Roderick L. Mitchell appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment
    dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging constitutional violations arising
    from the imposition of certain parole conditions. We have jurisdiction under 28
    U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a district court’s dismissal under Federal Rule
    *
    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).
    of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6). Decker v. Advantage Fund Ltd., 
    362 F.3d 593
    , 595-96
    (9th Cir. 2004). We may affirm on any basis supported by the record. Hell’s
    Angels Motorcycle Corp. v. McKinley, 
    360 F.3d 930
    , 933 (9th Cir. 2004). We
    affirm.
    Dismissal of Roderick’s claim for monetary damages was proper because
    defendants are entitled to absolute immunity for the imposition of the challenged
    parole conditions. See Thornton v. Brown, 
    757 F.3d 834
    , 840 (9th Cir. 2014)
    (parole officers are entitled to absolute immunity against claims for damages
    arising from imposition of parole conditions).
    The district court properly dismissed Roderick’s claim for injunctive relief
    as moot because Roderick is no longer on parole subject to the challenged
    conditions. See Bernhardt v. County of Los Angeles, 
    279 F.3d 862
    , 871 (9th
    Cir. 2002) (“An actual controversy must be extant at all stages of review, not
    merely at the time the complaint is filed.”).
    AFFIRMED.
