No. 09-0198-CV.
October 22, 2009.
Appeal from a judgment of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (Batts, J.).
UPON DUE CONSIDERATION, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED that the judgment of the district court be AFFIRMED.
Simon Sidney Honig, pro se, Forest Hills, New York, for Appellant.
Michael A. Cardozo, Marta Ross, City of New York Law Department, New York, New York; Marion R. Buchbinder, State of New York, Office of the Attorney General, New York, New York, for Appellees.
PRESENT: DENNIS JACOBS, Chief Judge, WILFRED FEINBERG, ROBERT A. KATZMANN, Circuit Judges.
Simon Honig appeals from the judgment of the district court dismissing his claims pursuant to Rule 12(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Honig alleged violations of his Eighth Amendment right to be free from cruel and unusual punishment and his Fourteenth Amendment rights to due process and equal protection.
We affirm for substantially the reasons stated in the district court's opinion. See Honig v. Bloomberg, No. 1:08-cv-00541 (DAB) (S.D.N.Y. Dec. 8, 2008).
Finding no merit in Hogg's remaining arguments, we hereby AFFIRM the judgment of the district court.
