MEMORANDUM **
Ronald Del Raine, a federal prisoner, appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing his action alleging that a number of officials in various federal prisons violated his civil rights and committed common-law torts. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291 . We review de novo. Schwarzenegger v. Fred Martin Motor Co., 374 F.3d 797, 800 (9th Cir.2004) (lack of personal jurisdiction), Wyatt v. Terhune, 315 F.3d 1108, 1117 (9th Cir.2003) (exhaustion of administrative remedies), Barnett v. Centoni, 31 F.3d 813, 816 (9th Cir.1994) (per curiam) (failure to state a claim), Kennedy v. S. Cal. Edison, Co., 268 F.3d 763 , 767 (9th Cir.2001) (dismissal with leave to amend). We may affirm on any basis supported by the record, Vestar Dev. II, LLC v. Gen.
