MEMORANDUM **

James Raymond Acres appeals pro se from the district court’s order dismissing his action for failure to exhaust tribal court remedies. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo. Slep-Tone Entm’t Corp. v. Wired for Sound Karaoke & DJ Servs., LLC, 845 F.3d 1246, 1248 (9th Cir. 2017) (motion to dismiss); Boozer v. Wilder, 381 F.3d 931, 934 (9th Cir. 2004) (exhaustion of tribal court remedies). We affirm.

The district court properly dismissed Acres’s action because Acres did not exhaust tribal court remedies and failed to demonstrate that exhaustion was excused. See Grand Canyon Skywalk Dev., LLC v. ‘Sa’ Nyu Wa Inc., 715 F.3d 1196, 1200-01 (9th Cir. 2013) (a federal court may not make a ruling on tribal court jurisdiction until tribal court remedies are exhausted and “a tribal court ... must have acted in bad faith for exhaustion to be excused”).

We do not consider arguments and allegations raised for the first time on appeal or in the reply brief. See Padgett v. Wright, 587 F.3d 983, 985 n.2 (9th Cir. 2009).

Acres’s motion to take judicial notice (Docket Entry No. 21) is denied.

AFFIRMED.
