   MEMORANDUM

Jorge Galindo appeals the district court’s summary judgment dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 excessive force claim and analogous state law claims against the City of Orange and Officer Fernando Maldonado. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Under the Supreme Court’s decision in Heck v. Humphrey, a plaintiff cannot maintain a § 1983 suit for damages if success on the claim would “necessarily imply” the invalidity of a related prior criminal conviction. 512 U.S. 477, 487, 114 S.Ct. 2364, 129 L.Ed.2d 383 (1994). Thus, a claim is barred under Heck if the plaintiff “would have to negate an element of the offense of which he has been convicted,” id. at 486 n.6, 114 S.Ct. 2364, or make specific factual allegations inconsistent with his criminal conviction, Cunningham v. Gates, 312 F.3d 1148, 1154 (9th Cir. 2002). California recognizes a similar doctrine, and “[tjhe California Supreme Court has not distinguished between the application of Heck to § 1983 [excessive force] claims and the application of analogous California law to state-law claims.” Hooper v. Cty. of San Diego, 629 F.3d 1127, 1134 (9th Cir. 2011) (citing Yount v. City of Sacramento, 43 Cal.4th 885, 76 Cal.Rptr.3d 787, 183 P.3d 471, 484 (2008)).

Galindo’s suit is barred for two reasons. First, to prevail on his § 1983 claim, Galin-do must negate an element of his California Penal Code section 148(a)(1) conviction. For a valid section 148(a)(1) conviction, “the defendant must have resisted, delayed, or obstructed a police officer in the lawful exercise of’ the officer’s duties. Hooper, 629 F.3d at 1130 (internal quotation marks, citation, and alterations omitted).' “The lawfulness of the officer’s conduct is an essential element of the offense under section 148(a)(1).” Id. The actions to which Galindo pleaded guilty under section 148(a)(1) occurred at the same time Officer Maldonado allegedly used excessive force. This circumstance means Galindo must negate an element of his conviction—Officer Maldonado’s lawful exercise of his duties— to prevail on his § 1983 elaim.

Additionally, Galindo’s claim is barred because he pleaded specific factual allegations in his § 1983 complaint that are inconsistent with the admissions supporting his criminal conviction. See Cunningham, 312 F.3d at 1154. Galindo alleges in his complaint that he “was not offering any resistance,” “there was no reason for him to not be able to be free from being detained,” and he “was engaged in lawful activity.” But Galindo’s allegations directly contradict his guilty plea admissions that he “resisted, delayed, [and] obstructed Officer Fernando Maldonado,” “refused] Officer Maldonado’s commands,” and “refus[ed] to show [his] hands despite numerous requests.” Because Galindo expressly disclaims acts to which he pleaded guilty, his claim necessarily fails under Heck.

AFFIRMED. 
      
       This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
     
      
      . Galindo pleaded guilty and stipulated to "refusing to show [his] hands.” When Officer Maldonado shot Galindo, his hands were not showing, Galindo's left hand was out of sight and his right hand was reaching towards his left pocket. Even Galindo now alleges in his complaint that he was "attempting to provide his identification ... when” he was shot.
