MEMORANDUM*
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of California
Anthony W. Ishii, Chief Judge, Presiding
Submitted March 6, 2012**
Before: B. FLETCHER, REINHARDT, and TASHIMA, Circuit Judges.
Anthony Adducci, a California state prisoner, appeals pro se from the district
court’s judgment dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action for failure to exhaust
administrative remedies under the Prison Litigation Reform Act, 42 U.S.C.

11-15310 2
§ 1997e(a). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo the
district court’s dismissal for failure to exhaust, and for clear error its factual
determinations. Wyatt v. Terhune, 315 F.3d 1108, 1117 (9th Cir. 2003). We
affirm.
The district court properly dismissed the action without prejudice because
Adducci failed to exhaust administrative remedies prior to filing suit. See
Woodford v. Ngo, 548 U.S. 81, 93-95 (2006) (holding that “proper exhaustion” is
mandatory and requires adherence to administrative procedural rules).
Adducci’s remaining contentions are unpersuasive.
AFFIRMED.
