MEMORANDUM*


2
Alan Venet appeals pro se the district court's dismissal of his action, styled as an action under the Religious Freedom Restoration Act ("RFRA"), 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000bb-2000bb-4, seeking a declaratory judgment stating that his state-court conviction was obtained in violation of his First Amendment rights and an order vacating his conviction.  We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.


3
Venet's contention that he is entitled to relief under the RFRA has been foreclosed by the Supreme Court's recent decision in City of Boerne v. P.F. Flores, 1997 WL 345322,

 Insofar as Venet contends that his First and Fourteenth Rights were violated and that his claim is actionable under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, we reject this contention.  See Sperl v. Deukmejian, 642 F.2d 1337, 1154 (9th Cir.1981) ("Declaratory relief is not available in federal court to attack a state criminal conviction")
