*2 Before: CANBY, R. NELSON, and FORREST, Circuit Judges.
Daine Anton Crawley appeals pro se from the district court ’ s summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging excessive force during his pretrial detention. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo the district court’s ruling on cross -motions for summary judgment. Hamby v. Hammond , 821 F.3d 1085, 1090 (9th Cir. 2016). We affirm.
The district court properly granted summary judgment for defendant Wolden on Crawley’s excessive force claim because Crawley failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether Wolden personally participated in the alleged excessive force in March 2018. See Jones v. Williams , 297 F.3d 930, 934 (9th Cir. 2002) (explaining that liability under § 1983 requires personal participation by the defendant in the alleged rights deprivation).
Crawley’s requests for appointment of counsel, set forth at Docket Entry No. 25 and in the opening and reply briefs, are denied.
AFFIRMED.
