The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review for an abuse of discretion a dismissal for failure to comply with a court order and failure to prosecute. Pagtalunan v. Galaza, 291 F.3d 639, 640 (9th Cir. 2002). We affirm.

The district court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing Martinez’s action because Martinez failed to comply with the district court’s order to serve defendants despite being warned that failure to comply would result in dismissal. See id. at 642-43 (discussing factors that courts must consider in determining whether to dismiss for failure to prosecute or failure to comply with a court order).

The district court did not abuse its discretion by denying Martinez’s motion to reopen because Martinez failed to demonstrate any basis for relief. See Sch. Dist. No. 1J, Multnomah County, Or. v. ACandS, Inc., 5 F.3d 1255, 1262-63 (9th Cir. 1993) (setting forth standard of review and grounds for relief under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 59).

Martinez’s motion to transmit physical exhibits (Docket Entry No. 7) is denied.

AFFIRMED.
