U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, 2001

Nickerson v. Conservatorship of Person & Estate of Wiro

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit · Decided September 20, 2001 · Hug, Law, Pregerson

18 F. App'x 670

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM **

Wayne Nickerson appeals pro se the district court’s order dismissing his action for lack of jurisdiction. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a dismissal for lack of subject matter jurisdiction, Crum v. Circus Circus Enters., 231 F.3d 1129, 1130 (9th Cir. 2000), and we affirm.

*671We conclude that the district court properly found no federal question jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1331, that plaintiff failed to allege diversity of citizenship under 28 U.S.C. § 1332, and that venue was improper under 28 U.S.C. § 1391. Accordingly, the district court properly dismissed Nickerson’s action for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. See Branson v. Nott, 62 F.3d 287, 291 (9th Cir. 1995).

All remaining contentions lack merit.

AFFIRMED.
