The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
Olson Trust No. 2, in the Trust’s diversity action seeking declaratory and
injunctive relief in connection with defendants’ non-consensual liens on real
property. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo, Doe
v. Abbott Labs., 571 F.3d 930, 933 (9th Cir. 2009), and we affirm.
We reject Lui’s argument that the district court violated his procedural due
process rights by deciding the Trust’s noticed motion for summary judgment
without first issuing a formal scheduling order, where Lui opposed the motion and
appeared at the hearing. See Guenther v. Comm’r, 889 F.2d 882, 884 (9th Cir.
1989) (order) (“Notice and an opportunity to be heard are the hallmarks of
procedural due process.”).
We do not consider arguments raised for the first time on appeal, including
Lui’s arguments concerning res judicata or collateral estoppel and alleged perjury
or fraud. See Padgett v. Wright, 587 F.3d 983, 985 n.2 (9th Cir. 2009) (per
curiam).
We lack jurisdiction to consider the district court’s order granting the Trust’s
motion for reconsideration because Lui failed to file an amended or separate notice
of appeal. See Whitaker v. Garcetti, 486 F.3d 572, 585 (9th Cir. 2007).
We do not have jurisdiction over the portion of the judgment as to Han
Kamakani Phua because Phua did not sign the Notice of Appeal. See Fed. R. App.
2 12-15251
P. 3(c)(2); Fed. R. App. P. 4(a); United States v. Sadler, 480 F.3d 932, 937 (9th
Cir. 2007) (Rule 4(a) is both mandatory and jurisdictional); C.E. Pope Equity Trust
v. United States, 818 F.2d 696, 697 (9th Cir. 1987) (a nonattorney does not have
authority to appear as an attorney for others).
AFFIRMED.
