Otis D. Wright, II, District Judge, Presiding
Submitted February 21, 2012**
Before: FERNANDEZ, McKEOWN, and BYBEE, Circuit Judges.

to serious medical needs arising from his detention in a city jail. We have

jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo, Toguchi v. Chung, 391
F.3d 1051, 1056 (9th Cir. 2004), and we affirm.
The district court properly granted summary judgment because Bell failed to
raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether he suffered from a serious
medical condition related to an ulcer during the relevant time, or whether
defendant Coates knew of, and knowingly failed to treat him for, the same. See id.
at 1057 (prisoner’s deliberate indifference claim requires that medical condition at
issue be objectively serious and that prison officials subjectively knew of it, but
deliberately failed to provide adequate medical care).
Bell’s remaining contentions are unpersuasive.
AFFIRMED.
