MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK
U.S. COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT
RAPHAEL RUSSELL, No. 16-35381
Plaintiff-Appellant, D.C. No. 2:15-cv-00328-JLR
v.
MEMORANDUM*
SAFECO INSURANCE COMPANY,
Defendant-Appellee.
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Western District of Washington
James L. Robart, District Judge, Presiding
Submitted October 23, 2017**
Before: McKEOWN, WATFORD, and FRIEDLAND, Circuit Judges.
Raphael Russell appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing
his diversity action alleging claims related to his home insurance policy. We have
jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review for an abuse of discretion the
district court’s dismissal for failure to comply with court orders, Malone v. U.S.
*
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
**
The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
Postal Serv., 833 F.3d 128, 130 (9th Cir. 1987), and we affirm.
The district court did not abuse its discretion by dismissing Russell’s action
after Russell failed to comply with court orders and meet discovery deadlines,
despite being given multiple extensions of time to comply and being warned that
failure to comply would result in dismissal. See id. (discussing the five factors the
district court must weigh before dismissing a case for failure to comply with a
court order).
We do not consider documents and facts not presented to the district court.
See United States v. Elias, 921 F.2d 870, 874 (9th Cir. 1990) (“Documents or facts
not presented to the district court are not part of the record on appeal.”).
AFFIRMED.
