NOT FOR PUBLICATION FILED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS AUG 26 2021 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT VICTOR M. SAMANIEGO; BERTHA No. 20-56354 ALICIA SAMANIEGO, D.C. No. 3:19-cv-01582-TWR- Plaintiffs-Appellants, BGS v. MEMORANDUM* LAW OFFICES OF LES ZIEVE ET. AL.; et al., Defendants-Appellees.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of California Todd W. Robinson, District Judge, Presiding Submitted August 17, 2021** Before: SILVERMAN, CHRISTEN, and LEE, Circuit Judges.

Victor M. Samaniego and Bertha Alicia Samaniego appeal pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing their action alleging federal and state law claims arising from the foreclosure of their home. We have jurisdiction under 28

* This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).

U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a dismissal under the Rooker-Feldman doctrine. Noel v. Hall, 341 F.3d 1148, 1154 (9th Cir. 2003). We affirm.

The district court properly dismissed the Samaniegos’ action because the action constitutes a forbidden “de facto appeal” of a prior state court judgment and raises claims that are “inextricably intertwined” with that judgment. Id. at 1163-65 (discussing proper application of the Rooker-Feldman doctrine); see also Henrichs v. Valley View Dev., 474 F.3d 609, 616 (9th Cir. 2007) (Rooker-Feldman barred plaintiff’s claim because the relief sought “would require the district court to determine that the state court’s decision was wrong and thus void”).

AFFIRMED.
