NOT FOR PUBLICATION


MEMORANDUM

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.


Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Eastern District of California

Roger T. Benitez, District Judge, Presiding

Before: HAWKINS, SILVERMAN and W. FLETCHER, Circuit Judges.

California state prisoner Kenneth Sierra appeals pro se from the district court's dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action on the grounds that Sierra's

complaint was nearly incomprehensible. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

The district court did not err in dismissing Sierra's action. We agree that the complaint lacks an arguable basis in either law or fact. See 28 U.S.C. §§1915(e)(2)(B), 1915A.

AFFIRMED.
