MEMORANDUM1

1
Tom Hale, an attorney appearing on his own behalf, appeals the district court's dismissal, based on absolute judicial immunity, of Hale's action against bankruptcy judge Jim Pappas.  We agree with the district court that Judge Pappas's actions were not outside his jurisdiction, and that, accordingly, Hale's action for damages and prospective injunctive relief is barred by judicial immunity pursuant to Mullis v. United States Bankruptcy Court, District of Nevada, 828 F.2d 1385, 1394 (9th Cir.1987).


2
AFFIRMED.
