Roach v. Napolitano

20 F. App'x 626

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Patrick Roach and Janis Griffin appeal the district court’s dismissal of their suit against Janet Napolitano, the Attorney General of Arizona, and two of her assistants. Because this suit stems from a motion that Defendants filed in court while defending the state in employment litigation, Defendants have absolute immunity, and dismissal was proper. See Fry v. Melaragno, 939 F.2d 832, 837 (9th Cir. 1991) (government attorneys immune for acts during judicial phase of litigation); Flood v. Harrington, 532 F.2d 1248, 1250-52 (9th Cir.1976) (same).

AFFIRMED.
