Mario De Vera v. United Airlines, Inc.

MEMORANDUM *** Mario De Vera appeals pro se from the district court’s summary judgment in his diversity action alleging breach of contract and breach of fiduciary duty. We have jurisdiction under to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo the district court’s summary judgment. Vasquez v. County of Los Angeles, 349 F.3d 634, 639 (9th Cir. 2003). We affirm. The district court properly granted summary judgment on De Vera’s breach of contract claim because De Vera failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether there was a contract between the parties regarding travel benefits. See Daniels v. Select Portfolio Servicing, Inc., 246 Cal.App.4th 1160, 201 Cal.Rptr.3d 390, 412 (2016) (setting forth elements of breach of contract claim); see also Moncada v. W. Coast Quartz Corp., 221 Cal.App.4th 768, 164 Cal.Rptr.3d 601, 623 (2013) (subjective beliefs of parties cannot provide the basis for contract formation). The district court properly granted summary judgment on De Vera’s breach of fiduciary duty claim because De Vera failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether a fiduciary or confidential relationship existed between him and United Airlines. See Knox v. Dean, 205 Cal.App.4th 417, 140 Cal.Rptr.3d 569, 582-83 (2012) (setting. forth elements of breach of fiduciary duty claim). We reject as unsupported by the record De Vera’s contentions that the district court did not address his allegations and that his complaint was not transferred to the district court. AFFIRMED.
