MEMORANDUM**

2
Richard Leyvas appeals the district court's dismissal, on statute of limitations grounds, of his 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983 action.  He raises one issue on appeal:  he asks us to overrule  Wilson v. Garcia, 471 U.S. 261 (1985).

3
Wilson is good law, which we have followed.   See, e.g., McDougal v. County of Imperial, 942 F.2d 668, 672-73 (9th Cir.1991).  We cannot overturn a Supreme Court decision.  This is a frivolous appeal.  We order Leyvas' attorney, John F. Whitfield, Jr., to pay to the County double costs on appeal.  Fed.R.App.P. 38.

4
AFFIRMED.

*
 The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument.  Fed.R.App.P. 34(a);  9th Cir.R. 34-4

 This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3
