   MEMORANDUM

California state prisoner Michael Lee McKelly appeals pro se the district court’s entry of judgment following a jury verdict for defendants in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging excessive force during his 1999 arrest. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291.

We affirm the district court’s judgment because neither of the rules McKelly cites on appeal would establish a basis for reversal in any event due to jury misconduct. See Fed.R.Civ.P. 403 and 609.

AFFIRMED.
