Defendants-Appellees.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of California Richard Seeborg, District Judge, Presiding

Submitted July 18, 2023**

Before: SCHROEDER, RAWLINSON, and BADE, Circuit Judges.

Kevin Paul Woodruff and Tanya Stutson appeal pro se from the district

* 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). court’s judgment dismissing their action relating to the foreclosure of their home.

We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a dismissal

under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6). Puri v. Khalsa, 844 F.3d 1152, 1157 (9th Cir. 2017). We affirm.

The district court properly dismissed plaintiffs’ action because plaintiffs

failed to allege facts sufficient to state a plausible claim. See Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678 (2009) (to avoid dismissal, “a complaint must contain sufficient

factual matter, accepted as true, to state a claim to relief that is plausible on its

face” (citation and internal quotation marks omitted)); Sprewell v. Golden State

Warriors, 266 F.3d 979, 988 (9th Cir. 2001) (courts are not required to accept as

true allegations that “contradict matters properly subject to judicial notice or

exhibit” or allegations that are “merely conclusory, unwarranted deductions of fact,

or unreasonable inferences”).

The district court did not abuse its discretion in denying plaintiffs’ motion

for reconsideration because plaintiffs set forth no valid grounds for

reconsideration. See Sch. Dist. No. 1J, Multnomah County, Or., 5 F.3d 1255, 1262-63 (9th Cir. 1993) (setting forth standard of review and grounds for

reconsideration under Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 59).

Plaintiffs’ motion to extend the time to file a reply brief (Docket Entry No.

2 22-15926 12) is denied as unnecessary.

AFFIRMED.
