CINDY DUPRE, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. MOUNTAIN WEST FINANCIAL, INC.; et al., Defendants-Appellees.


NOT FOR PUBLICATION

D.C. No. 5:13-cv-01480-CAS-OP MEMORANDUM Appeal from the United States District Court for the Central District of California
Christina A. Snyder, District Judge, Presiding Before: GOODWIN, FARRIS, and FERNANDEZ, Circuit Judges.

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.

Cindy Dupre appeals pro se from the district court's order dismissing her action alleging federal and state law claims arising from foreclosure proceedings. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a district court's dismissal for failure to state a claim under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6), Cervantes v. Countrywide Home Loans, Inc., 656 F.3d 1034, 1040 (9th Cir. 2011), and we affirm.

The district court properly dismissed Dupre's promissory estoppel claim because Dupre failed to allege facts sufficient to state a plausible claim. See Jones v. Wachovia Bank, 179 Cal. Rptr. 3d 21, 28 (Ct. App. 2014) (stating elements of promissory estoppel).

The district court did not abuse its discretion by retaining supplemental jurisdiction over Dupre's promissory estoppel claim after dismissing with prejudice Dupre's federal claims. See Satey v. JPMorgan Chase & Co., 521 F.3d 1087, 1090 (9th Cir. 2008) (setting forth standard of review); see also 28 U.S.C. § 1367 (granting district courts supplemental jurisdiction over claims related to those over which district courts have original jurisdiction).

The district court did not abuse its discretion by dismissing Dupre's third amended complaint without further leave to amend. See Cervantes, 656 F.3d at 1041 (setting forth standard of review and explaining that dismissal without leave to amend is proper when amendment would be futile).

AFFIRMED.
