ORDER

1
The substance of Appellant Tripati's two suits, district court actions DC 86-231 (Action # 1) and DC 85-170 (Action # 2), was identical:  the adequacy of the prison law library at the Federal Correctional Institution in Tucson, Arizona where he was incarcerated.

2
In Action # 1, the district court entered summary judgment for defendants on the merits and denied Tripati's motion to vacate defendants' judgment.   After filing a notice of appeal, Tripati stipulated to a dismissal pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.Proc. 40(a)(2).

3
This appeal is from a denial of a 60(b) motion in action # 2.   The district court's denial of Tripati's motion to vacate is AFFIRMED.

 The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument.   Fed.R.App.P. 34(a);  Circuit Rule 34-4
