district court’s dismissal for failure to exhaust. Wyatt v. Terhune, 315 F.3d 1108,
1117 (9th Cir. 2003). We affirm.
The district court properly dismissed Cruz-Mosquera’s action because he
failed to exhaust administrative remedies. See Woodford v. Ngo, 548 U.S. 81, 85,
93-95 (2006) (holding that “proper exhaustion” is mandatory and requires
adherence to administrative procedural rules).
AFFIRMED.
