Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of California

Submitted March 3, 2020**
Before: MURGUIA, CHRISTEN, and BADE, Circuit Judges.
California state prisoner Dorothy Grace Marie Maraglino appeals pro se
from the district court’s judgment dismissing her 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging
federal and state law violations in connection with restitution payments. We have

jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo the district court’s
dismissal under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1915A and 1915(e)(2)(b)(ii). Resnick v. Hayes,
213
F.3d 443, 447 (9th Cir. 2000); Barren v. Harrington,
152 F.3d 1193, 1194 (9th Cir.
1998) (order). We affirm.
The district court properly dismissed Maraglino’s due process claim arising
from the withholding of restitution and fees from deposits to her inmate trust
account because Maraglino had an adequate postdeprivation remedy under
California law. See Hudson v. Palmer,
468 U.S. 517, 533 (1984) (“[A]n
unauthorized intentional deprivation of property by a state employee does not
constitute a violation of the procedural requirements of the Due Process Clause of
the Fourteenth Amendment if a meaningful postdeprivation remedy for the loss is
available.”); Barnett v. Centoni,
31 F.3d 813, 816-17 (9th Cir. 1994) (“California
[l]aw provides an adequate post-deprivation remedy for any property
deprivations.”).
The district court properly dismissed Maraglino’s due process claim arising
from the treatment of her prison appeals because Maraglino “lack[s] a separate
constitutional entitlement to a specific prison grievance procedure.” Ramirez v.
Galaza,
334 F.3d 850, 860 (9th Cir. 2003).
The district court did not abuse its discretion in declining to exercise
supplemental jurisdiction over Maraglino’s state law claims because the court
2 19-16189
dismissed the federal claims over which it had original jurisdiction. See 28 U.S.C.
§ 1367(c)(3); Lacey v. Maricopa County,
693 F.3d 897, 940 (9th Cir. 2012) (en
banc).
AFFIRMED.
