Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of California Charles R. Breyer, District Judge, Presiding Submitted February 18, 2026**

Before: CALLAHAN, FRIEDLAND, and BRESS, Circuit Judges.

Kabas Krasnici, Sr., appeals pro se from the district court’s order dismissing without prejudice his action alleging bank misconduct and seeking hundreds of billions of dollars. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo. Immigrant Assistance Project of the L.A. County Fed’n of Lab. (AFL-CIO) v. INS, 306 F.3d 842, 868 (9th Cir. 2002). We affirm.

The district court dismissed Krasnici’s action for improper venue because Krasnici failed to establish that any of the defendants reside in the Northern District of California or that a substantial part of the events giving rise to his claims occurred there. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b)(1), (2) (describing where a civil action may be brought). Krasnici’s brief on appeal does not demonstrate how the district court erred in its determination.

Krasnici’s motion (Docket Entry No. 24) for leave to file a replacement opening brief to correct clerical errors is granted. All other pending motions and requests are denied.

AFFIRMED.
