   MEMORANDUM

Vance Edward Johnson, a California state prisoner, appeals pro se from the district court’s summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging an access-to-courts claim. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo cross motions for summary judgment, Guatay Christian Fellowship v. County of San Diego, 670 F.3d 957, 970 (9th Cir.2011), and we affirm.

The district court properly granted summary judgment for defendant because Johnson failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether defendant caused an actual injury to a non-frivolous claim. See Christopher v. Harbury, 536 U.S. 403, 414, 122 S.Ct. 2179, 153 L.Ed.2d 413 (2002) (“The official acts claimed to have denied access [to the courts]” must have “caused the loss [ ] of a meritorious case.”); Lewis v. Casey, 518 U.S. 343, 348-53, 116 S.Ct. 2174, 135 L.Ed.2d 606 (1996) (setting forth the elements of an access-to-courts claim). Moreover, summary judgment for defendant was proper even taking into account the full eight days preceding Johnson’s deadline for filing a petition for writ of certiorari in his habeas proceeding.

AFFIRMED.
