U.S. COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT GREGORY SCOTT VAN HUISEN, No. 24-6485

D.C. No. 5:23-cv-04800-PCP

Plaintiff - Appellant, v. MEMORANDUM* ERIC LAFRADES; ERIC CAFRADES,

Defendants - Appellees.

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Northern District of California

P. Casey Pitts, District Judge, Presiding

Submitted April 22, 2025** Before: GRABER, H.A. THOMAS, and JOHNSTONE, Circuit Judges.

California state prisoner Gregory Scott Van Huisen appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging various claims. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a dismissal under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A. Hayes v. Idaho Corr. Ctr., 849 F.3d 1204,

*

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). 1208 (9th Cir. 2017). We affirm.

The district court properly dismissed Van Huisen’s action because Van Huisen failed to allege facts sufficient to state any plausible claim. See Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678 (2009) (explaining that, 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)).

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

AFFIRMED.
