Plaintiff-Appellant, D.C. No. 2:21-cv-01953-DAD-CKD v.

MEMORANDUM* ANDREW NELSON III; CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS AND REHABILITATION,

Defendants-Appellees.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California Dale A. Drozd, District Judge, Presiding Submitted December 17, 2024**

Before: WALLACE, GRABER, and BUMATAY, Circuit Judges.

Raimi Shoaga appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing his Title VII action alleging employment discrimination. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a district court’s dismissal under Fed.

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.

R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6). Wood v. City of San Diego, 678 F.3d 1075, 1080 (9th Cir. 2012). We affirm.

The district court properly dismissed Shoaga’s action because Shoaga failed to allege facts sufficient to show that he exhausted administrative remedies. See B.K.B. v. Maui Police Dep’t, 276 F.3d 1091, 1099-1100 (9th Cir. 2002) (Title VII plaintiff must exhaust administrative remedies by filing a timely EEOC or state agency charge, and allegations not included in an EEOC charge “may not be considered by a federal court unless the new claims are like or reasonably related to the allegations contained in the EEOC charge” (citations and internal quotation marks omitted)), abrogated on other grounds by Fort Bend County, Texas v. Davis, 587 U.S. 541 (2019).

AFFIRMED.

2 23-16002

* The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
