MEMORANDUM**

2

Paul Peiffer and others appeal pro se the district court's summary judgment in favor of Washington County, Oregon Deputy Sheriffs Willie Bose and Theodore Evans and others in Peiffer's 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging that the plaintiffs were arrested without a warrant or probable cause.

3

Peiffer contends that the district judge should have recused himself because he is a member of the Oregon State Bar Association, a named defendant. "The fact that a plaintiff sues a bar association does not require recusal of judges who are members of that bar association." DeNardo v. Municipality of Anchorage, 974 F.2d 1200, 1201 (9th Cir.1992), cert. denied, 113 S.Ct. 1351 (1993). The district judge's failure to recuse himself from this case did not constitute an abuse of discretion. See id.

AFFIRMED.

The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument. Fed.R.App.P. 34(a); 9th Cir.R. 34-4
