September 19, 2000
Before JOLLY, SMITH, and DUHÉ, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:1
Roy L. Roberts, Louisiana prisoner #308035, appeals the district
court’s summary-judgment dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint.
The heart of his argument on appeal is simply that he did not receive

the care he believes he was entitled to receive. However, Roberts’
disagreement with the extensive medical treatment he received is not
sufficient to raise a genuine issue of material fact. Norton v.
Dimazana, 122 F.3d 286, 292 (5th Cir. 1997). Nor is there any merit to
Roberts’ suggestion that the defendants’ cumulative acts of negligence
are sufficient to raise a material fact issue for deliberate
indifference. See Stewart v. Murphy, 174 F.3d 530, 537 (5th Cir. 1999).
Accordingly, the district court did not err in granting summary judgment
in favor of the defendants.
AFFIRMED.
