MEMORANDUM ***

Ronald L. Green appeals pro se from the district court’s summary judgment in his employment action alleging discrimination and retaliation claims under Title VII and the Rehabilitation Act. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo. Cotton v. City of Alameda, 812 F.2d 1245, 1247 (9th Cir. 1987). We affirm.

The district court properly granted summary judgment on Green’s racial discrimination claim relating to an unfilled position because Green failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether, “after his rejection, the position remained open and the employer continued to seek applicants from persons of [his] qualifications.” McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Green, 411 U.S. 792, 802, 93 S.Ct. 1817, 36 L.Ed.2d 668 (1973).

The district court properly granted summary judgment on Green’s racial and disability discrimination claims arising from allegations other than the unfilled position because Green failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether de *573 fendant’s asserted nondiscriminatory reasons for its actions were pretextual. See Hawn v. Exec. Jet Mgmt., Inc., 615 F.3d 1151, 1155-56 (9th Cir. 2010) (providing framework for analyzing a discrimination claim under Title VII); Lucero v. Hart, 915 F.2d 1367, 1371 (9th Cir. 1990) (elements of a disability discrimination claim under the Rehabilitation Act); see also Stegall v. Citadel Broad. Co., 350 F.3d 1061, 1066, 1068-69 (9th Cir. 2004) (circumstantial evidence of pretext must be specific and substantial).

The district court properly granted summary judgment on Green’s retaliation claims because Green failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether defendant’s asserted non-retaliatory reasons for its actions were pretextual. See Surrell v. Cal. Water Serv. Co., 518 F.3d 1097, 1108 (9th Cir. 2008) (elements of a retaliation claim under Title VII); Coons v. Sec’y of U.S. Dep’t of Treasury, 383 F.3d 879, 887 (9th Cir. 2004) (setting forth burden shifting test for evaluating a retaliation claim under the Rehabilitation Act); see also Stegall at 1066, 1068-69.

We do not consider matters not specifically and distinctly raised and argued in the opening brief, or arguments and allegations raised for the first time on appeal, including any due process claim relating to accrued sick leave. See Padgett v. Wright, 587 F.3d 983, 985 n.2 (9th Cir. 2009).

AFFIRMED.
