MEMORANDUM*

2
Jorge Luis Perez appeals pro se the district court's summary judgment for the defendants in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 civil rights action alleging Eighth and Fourteenth Amendment violations.  We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

3
Perez argues that the district court's summary judgment for the defendants was inappropriate because the district judge failed to appoint counsel for Perez.  We disagree.  Perez failed to show that exceptional circumstances warranted the appointment of counsel.  See Wilborn v. Escalderon, 789 F.2d 1328, 1331 (9th Cir.1986).  Because Perez raises no other issues on appeal, the district court's summary judgment is affirmed.

4
AFFIRMED.

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