dismissal under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1915A and 1915(e)(2). Resnick v. Hayes, 213 F.3d
443, 447 (9th Cir. 2000); Barren v. Harrington, 152 F.3d 1193, 1194 (9th Cir.
1998) (order). We affirm.
The district court properly dismissed Entler’s action challenging the prison’s
grievance procedures because “[t]here is no legitimate claim of entitlement to a
prison grievance procedure.” Mann v. Adams, 855 F.2d 639, 640 (9th Cir. 1988).
AFFIRMED.
