Dennis Moore v. Susan Grundmann

*687 MEMORANDUM ** Dennis Moore appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing his action, arising from the Merit Systems Protection Board’s (“MSPB”) denial of his request to reopen his appeal. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo. See Starr v. Baca, 652 F.3d 1202, 1205 (9th Cir. 2011) (Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6)); Crum v. Circus Circus Enters., 231 F.3d 1129, 1130 (9th Cir. 2000) (subject matter jurisdiction). We affirm. The district court properly concluded that it lacked subject matter jurisdiction to review the MSPB’s denial of Moore’s request to reopen his appeal. See 5 U.S.C. § 7703 (“Any employee ... aggrieved by a final order or decision of the Merit Systems Protection Board may obtain judicial review of the order or decision”); Haines v. Merit Sys. Prot. Bd., 44 F.3d 998, 1000 (Fed. Cir. 1995) (holding that MSPB denials of repetitive informal requests to reopen did not constitute final decisions that the court could review). The district court properly dismissed Moore’s due process claims because Moore failed to allege facts sufficient to state a plausible claim. See Wright v. Riveland, 219 F.3d 905, 913 (9th Cir. 2000) (setting forth elements of a procedural due process claim). The district court did not abuse its discretion in granting defendants’ motion for an extension of time to file a response to the Third Amended Complaint. See Ahanchian v. Xenon Pictures, Inc., 624 F.3d 1253, 1258 (9th Cir. 2010) (standard of review); FTC v. Gill, 265 F.3d 944, 957 (9th Cir. 2001) (district court has broad discretion to control its docket and set deadlines). We do not consider matters not specifically and distinctly raised and argued in the opening brief, including Moore’s contentions regarding the Notification and Federal Employees Antidiscrimination Act, or arguments and allegations raised for the first time on appeal. See Padgett v. Wright, 587 F.3d 983, 985 n.2 (9th Cir. 2009). All pending motions and requests are denied. AFFIRMED.
