MEMORANDUM**

2

Terry Butler appeals pro se the district court's dismissal of his action as a sanction for discovery abuses pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 37(b)(2)(C). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review a district court's imposition of discovery sanctions for abuse of discretion. Adriana Int'l Corp. v. Thoeren, 913 F.2d 1406, 1408 (9th Cir.1990), cert. denied, 498 U.S. 1109 (1991). We conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion.
