MEMORANDUM **
Former Washington state prisoner James C. Warren appeals pro se from the district courts judgment dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging deliberate indifference to his serious medical needs. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a dismissal under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A. Belanus v. Clark, 796 F.3d 1021, 1024 (9th Cir. 2015). We affirm.
The district court properly dismissed Warrens action because the complaint was filed more than three years after the accrual of the claims and the operative pleading did not allege facts sufficient to support equitable tolling. See Wallace v. Kato, 549 U.S. 384, 387, 394, 127 S.Ct. 1091, 166 L.Ed.2d 973 (2007) (federal courts in § 1983 actions apply the state statute of limitations from personal injury actions and borrow applicable tolling provisions from state law); Bagley v. CMC Real Estate Corp., 923 F.2d 758, 760 (9th Cir. 1991) (statute of limitations in Washington is three years); In re Bonds, 165 Wash.2d 135, 196 P.3d 672, 676 (2008) (equitable tolling should be used “sparingly” and is only allowed when justice requires and when the predicates of bad faith, deception, or false assurances by the defendant and the exercise of diligence by the plaintiff are met).
AFFIRMED.
