Alvin Robert Alexander v. The California Court Director of Correction, Adult Authority
433 F.2d 360
9th Cir.
1970
Check Treatment
PER CURIAM:

Alexander appeals from an order denying him leave to file a Civil Rights Act complaint in forma pauperis, charging that the Adult Authority’s power to redetermine his sentence violates his constitutional rights.

We hold that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying Alexander leave thus to proceed. Alexander’s complaint did not allege facts sufficient to constitute a claim for relief under the Civil Rights Act. (Weller v. Dickson (9th Cir. 1963) 314 F.2d 598, cert. denied, 375 U.S. 845, 84 S.Ct. 97, 11 L.Ed.2d 72.) No facts are averred even suggesting that the Adult Authority’s actions in suspending or revoking his parole were arbitrary. (Dunn v. California Department of Corrections (9th Cir. 1968) 401 F.2d 340.) No federal constitutional questions are raised by the complaint. (Sturm v. California Adult Au-

*361 thority (9th Cir. 1967) 395 F.2d 446.) Moreover, a civil rights action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 does not lie against an administrative agency. (Monroe v. Pape (1961) 365 U.S. 167, 81 S.Ct. 473, 5 L.Ed.2d 492.)

The order is affirmed.
