MEMORANDUM**

2

George Brown, a Washington state prisoner, appeals the district court's dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983 action. Brown sued the prosecutors who tried his state criminal case and the judge who heard the case. His pro se brief alleges, without support of any factual detail, that the defendants deprived him of his civil rights. To the extent that it is possible to determine his purpose, Brown is suing the defendants for actions taken in their official capacity.

3

We affirm the district court's judgment. Judges and prosecutors acting within their official capacity are immune from section 1983 liability. See Ashelman v. Pope, 793 F.2d 1072, 1075 (9th Cir.1986) (en banc). Brown's conclusory allegations do not establish a section 1983 claim. See Aldabe v. Aldabe, 616 F.2d 1089, 1092 (9th Cir.1980).

4

The judgment is AFFIRMED.

The panel finds this case appropriate for submission without oral argument pursuant to Fed.R.App.P. 34(a) and Ninth Cir.R. 34-4
