MEMORANDUM

Padam Kumar Khanna, a disbarred California attorney, appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging that defendants conspired with the State Bar of California to deprive him of his attorney’s license. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 . We review for an abuse of discretion the denial of a motion for default judgment. Eitel v. McCool, 782 F.2d 1470, 1471 (9th Cir.1986). We affirm.

See id. at 1471-72 (setting forth factors that courts may consider in determining whether to enter default judgment); Aldabe v. Aldabe, 616 F.2d 1089, 1092-93 (9th Cir.1980) (per curiam) (no abuse its discretion in denying motion for default judgment where substantive claims lacked merit).
