Submitted March 16, 2010**

We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo, Whitaker v.
Garcetti, 486 F.3d 572, 579 (9th Cir. 2007), and we affirm.
The district court properly granted summary judgment on Wesbecher’s
excessive force claim because a judgment in his favor would necessarily imply the
invalidity of his convictions, and Wesbecher offered no evidence that his
convictions have been invalidated. See Heck v. Humphrey, 512 U.S. 477, 486-87
(1994).
Defendant Landaker’s motion to supplement the record and motion for leave
to file a late brief are granted.
AFFIRMED.
