Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Hawaii state prisoner Gerald M. Villanueva appeals pro se the district court's judgment dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action as barred by the statute of limitations. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo, Fink v. Shedler, 192 F.3d 911, 913-14 (9th Cir.1999), and we affirm.
Villanueva contends the district court should have tolled the statute of limitations pursuant to Haw.Rev.Stat. § 657-13, 657-34 because he is incarcerated. We disagree.
We affirm for the reasons stated in the district court's order entered on December 20, 2002.
AFFIRMED.
