Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
California state prisoner Jessie Watson appeals pro se from the district court's judgment dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action for failure to exhaust administrative remedies under the Prison Litigation Reform Act, 42 U.S.C. § 1997e(a). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo, Wyatt v. Terhune, 315 F.3d 1108, 1117 (9th Cir.2003), and we affirm.
The district court properly dismissed the action because Watson did not exhaust his prison grievance remedies. See Woodford v. Ngo, 548 U.S. 81, 93-95, 126 S.Ct. 2378,165 L.Ed.2d 368 (2006) (exhaustion is mandatory and must be done in a timely manner consistent with prison policies).
Watson's remaining contentions are unpersuasive.
AFFIRMED.
