Appeal from the United States District Court for the Central District of California, No. CV-95-06739-JDG; John G. Davies, District Judge, Presiding.

Before: GOODWIN, SCHROEDER and TASHIMA, Circuit Judges.

MEMORANDUM*

In No. 96-56271, Howard Browning appeals pro se the district court's summary judgment dismissal of his Racketeer Influenced Corrupt Organizations Act ("RICO") [18 U.S.C. 1961-1968] action alleging that Centinela Hospital Medical Center failed to maintain its jacuzzi at a temperature of 105 degrees. We affirm. Browning's complaint fails to state a claim for a violation of RICO. See 18 U.S.C. 1962(c); Oscar v. University Students Co-op Ass'n, 965 F.2d 783, 786 (9th Cir.) (en banc), cert. denied, 113 S.Ct. 655 (1992). The district properly denied Browning leave to amend his complaint because it is "absolutely clear that the deficiencies of the complaint could not be cured by amendment." See Noll v. Carlson, 809 F.2d 1446, 1448 (9th Cir.1987).

In No. 96-56273, Browning appeals pro se the district court's dismissal of his second amended complaint alleging that Bio-Diagnostic Laboratories violated' RICO by enlisting physicians to refer patients to a Bio-Diagnostic clinic for skin cancer tests, and falsely diagnosing skin cancer. We affirm.1 We agree with the district court that Browning's second amended complaint fails to state a claim for a violation of RICO. See 18 U.S.C. 1962(c); Oscar, 965 F.2d at 786.

AFFIRMED.
