Appeal from the United States District Court
for the District of Arizona
David C. Bury, District Judge, Presiding
Submitted February 21, 2012 **
Before: FERNANDEZ, McKEOWN, and BYBEE, Circuit Judges.
Dennis David McCulley appeals pro se from the district court’s summary
judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging violations of his civil rights when
he was shot by police officers. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We

review de novo. Luchtel v. Hagemann, 623 F.3d 975, 978 (9th Cir. 2010). We
affirm summary judgment for defendants for the reasons set forth in the magistrate
judge’s report and recommendation entered on March 29, 2010, and adopted by the
district court in its order entered on May 24, 2010.
The district court did not abuse its discretion in denying McCulley’s motion
for reconsideration, because McCulley provided no basis for reconsideration. See
Barber v. State of Hawaii, 42 F.3d 1185, 1198 (9th Cir. 1994) (setting forth
standard of review).
We decline to consider McCulley’s argument, raised for the first time on
appeal, that his arrest constituted a denial of a public benefit under Title II of the
Americans with Disabilities Act. See Peterson v. Highland Music, Inc., 140 F.3d
1313, 1321 (9th Cir. 1998) (noting general rule against entertaining arguments on
appeal that were not developed before the district court).
McCulley’s remaining contentions are unpersuasive.
McCulley’s letter received on January 3, 2012 is construed as a supplement
to his reply brief, and has been considered.
AFFIRMED.
