EnglishEspañolSimplified EnglishEspañol Fácil
Vladislav Steven Zubkis appeals the district court's order that dismissed his case due to lack of jurisdiction. The appellate court has jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and reviews the dismissal de novo. The court interprets the district court’s August 23, 1999, order as a dismissal with prejudice for the entire case. It affirms the dismissal, concluding that the district court correctly determined there was no federal question jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1331 and that Zubkis did not establish diversity of citizenship under 28 U.S.C. § 1332. The disposition is not intended for publication and cannot be cited except as permitted by 9th Cir. R. 36-3. The panel finds the case suitable for decision without oral argument.
