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

The district court did not abuse its discretion by dismissing Cormier’s action without prejudice after Cormier failed to file an amended complaint or a notice of intent to proceed with his original complaint. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b) (district court may dismiss an action if the plaintiff “fails to prosecute or to comply with these rules or a court order”); Pagtalunan, 291 F.3d at 642-43 (discussing the five factors to consider before dismissing an action for failure to prosecute or failure to comply with a court order).

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.
