Quansah v. Citibank
Quansah v. Citibank
Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
Kenneth B. Quansah, Jr., appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing his action against two banks and the State of California Franchise Tax Board, alleging that his due process rights were violated by the banks’ cooperation with the State’s tax collection activities. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. After de novo review, Jerron West, Inc. v. Cal. State Bd. of Equalization, 129 F.3d 1334,1337 (9th Cir. 1997), we affirm.
The district court properly concluded that, under the Tax Injunction Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1341, it lacked jurisdiction over Quansah’s action because Quansah sought “interference with California’s tax assessment ■ and collection process.” Jerron West, 129 F.3d at 1337; see also Marvin F. Poer & Co. v. Counties of Alameda, 725 F.2d 1234, 1236 (9th Cir. 1984) (holding that the Tax Injunction Act applies to actions for damages).
Quansah’s remaining contentions lack merit.
AFFIRMED.
