Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Oregon Adrienne C. Nelson, District Judge, Presiding Submitted October 15, 2025**

Before: FRIEDLAND, MILLER, and SANCHEZ, Circuit Judges.

*

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

Federal prisoner Martin Joseph Jonassen appeals pro se from the district court’s order denying his request to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP”) in his action brought under Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Federal Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388 (1971). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We affirm.

Because Jonassen does not challenge the district court’s denial of his request to proceed IFP in his opening brief, we do not address the decision. See Indep. Towers of Wash. v. Washington, 350 F.3d 925, 929 (9th Cir. 2003) (explaining that “we will not consider any claims that were not actually argued in appellant’s opening brief”).

All pending motions and requests are denied.

AFFIRMED.
