MEMORANDUM

Marc Anthony Lowell Endsley, who is committed to a state psychiatric hospital facility, appeals pro se from the district court’s summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action arising from his former hospital’s treatment program and its requirement that patients remain in a common room if they choose not to participate in treatment sessions. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 . We review de novo, Doe 1 v. Abbott Labs., 571 F.3d 930, 933 (9th Cir.2009), and we affirm.

The district court properly granted summary judgment on Endsley’s inadequate mental health treatment claim arising from the revocation of some of his privileges because he failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether this decision by his treatment team was “a substantial departure from accepted professional judgment, practice, or standards.” Youngberg v. Romeo, 457 U.S. 307, 323 , 102 S.Ct. 2452 , 73 L.Ed.2d 28 (1982) (decisions by mental healthcare professionals are “presumptively valid”).

The district court properly granted summary judgment on Endsley’s excessive force claim because he failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether the force used was reasonable under the circumstances and did not amount to punishment. See Hydrick v. Hunter, 500 F.3d 978, 997 (9th Cir.2007) (Fourteenth Amendment applies to excessive force claims by civilly committed individuals, which requires that they not be subjected to conditions that amount to punishment, within the bounds of professional discretion), vacated on other grounds, — U.S. -, 129 S.Ct. 2431 , 174 L.Ed.2d 226 (2009); see also Graham v. Connor, 490 U.S. 386 , 395 n. 10, 109 S.Ct. 1865 , 104 L.Ed.2d 443 (1989) (Fourteenth Amendment protects a pretrial detainee from excessive force amounting to punishment).

The district court properly granted summary judgment on Endsley’s conditions of confinement claim because he failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether conditions in the common room, where those patients who chose not to participate in treatment sessions were temporarily held, amounted to punishment. See Bell v. Wolfish, 441 U.S. 520, 537 , 99 S.Ct. 1861 , 60 L.Ed.2d 447 (1979) (some losses of freedom of movement and choice are inherent discomforts of confinement, and not every disability imposed during detention “amounts to ‘punishment’ in the constitutional sense”).

Endsley’s remaining contentions, including those regarding his state law tort claims, are unpersuasive.

We do not consider matters not specifically and distinctly raised and argued in the opening brief. See Padgett v. Wright, 587 F.3d 983 , 985 n. 2 (9th Cir.2009) (per curiam).

AFFIRMED.
