Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Appellant John Doe (Doe) appeals the district court's grant of summary judg ment in favor of Sempervirens Mental Health Facility (Sempervirens), Dr. Asha George, and Dr. Chris Starets-Foote (Ap-pellees) in Doe's 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging deliberate indifference to his Second Amendment rights. We review de novo. See United States Small Bus. Admin. v. Bensal, 853 F.3d 992, 996 (9th Cir. 2017). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and affirm.
The district court properly granted summary judgment in Appellees' favor because Doe failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether Appellees were deliberately indifferent in correcting the reporting error that prevented issuance of a gun permit. See Kirkpatrick v. Cty. of Washoe, 843 F.3d 784, 794 (9th Cir. 2016) (en banc) (observing that deliberate indifference occurs if a constitutional violation is "patently obvious" and a "highly predictable consequence" of the municipal actor's conduct) (quoting Connick v. Thompson, 563 U.S. 51, 63, 131 S.Ct. 1350, 179 L.Ed.2d 417 (2011)). At bottom, the action complained of was the result of failure to completely adhere to a very technical administrative process complicated by an intervening change in the governing law. This situation does not rise to the level of deliberate indifference. See id.
As Doe conceded, Appellees ultimately rectified the reporting error, alleviating any constitutional injury. See Bauer v. Becerra, 858 F.3d 1216, 1220-21 (9th Cir. 2017) (examining burden on Second Amendment right to determine whether the plaintiff suffered a constitutional injury). Absent a constitutional injury, no liability ensues under § 1983. See Yousefian v. Cty. of Glendale, 779 F.3d 1010, 1014-16 (9th Cir. 2015).
