Opinion

MEMORANDUM

**

Ljubomir Atanasoff appeals pro se the district court’s summary judgment in favor of the defendants in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging that his civil rights were violated when he was denied a building permit and subsequently arrested and convicted for grading on his lot. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo, Delta Sav. Bank v. United States, 265 F.3d 1017, 1021 (9th Cir.2001), and we affirm.

The district court properly granted summary judgment because Atanasoff s claims are time-barred. See Ariz.Rev.Stat. § 12-542(1); see also De Luna v. Farris, 841 F.2d 312, 315 (9th Cir.1988) (concluding that section 1983 action was barred by Arizona’s two-year statute of limitations for personal injury).

Atanasoffs motion for summary judgment on appeal is denied.

AFFIRMED.
