MEMORANDUM

Bahman Rezaipour appeals from the district court’s order granting summary judgment to i;he County of Los Angeles on his employment discrimination claims. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 , and we affirm the district court judgment.

1. We affirm the district court’s grant of summary judgment for the county on Re-zaipour’s First Amendment retaliation claim. Rezaipour has not met his burden of raising a triable issue as to whether his “protected speech was a substantial or motivating factor” in the county’s decision to fire him. Dahlia v. Rodriguez, 735 F.3d 1060, 1067 (9th Cir. 2013) (en banc) (quoting Eng v. Cooley, 552 F.3d 1062, 1070 (9th Cir. 2009)). Nearly two years elapsed between when the Department of Justice’s report became public and when the county first notified Rezaipour of its intent to fire him. During that time, multiple female employees made sexual harassment complaints against Rezaipour, and those complaints were substantiated by investigators in two county departments. The county further determined that Rezaipour had misused computer resources and been insubordinate. Rezaipour has failed to raise a triable issue as to whether those allegations were false and pretextual. See An thoine v. N. Cent. Ctys. Consortium, 605 F.3d 740, 750 (9th Cir. 2010).

2. For similar reasons, we affirm the district court’s grant of summary judgment for the county on Rezaipour’s California whistleblower claim. To establish a prima facie case of retaliation under California Labor Code Section 1102.5(b), a plaintiff must show that a “causal link” exists between his or her protected activity and the adverse employment action. Soukup v. Law Offices of Herbert Hafif, 39 Cal.4th 260 , 46 Cal.Rptr.3d 638 , 139 P.3d 30, 48 (2006). Rezaipour’s whistleblower claim fails for the same reason that his First Amendment retaliation claim fails: he has not raised a triable issue as to whether a causal link exists between his disclosures to the Department of Justice and the county’s decision to fire him. Even if Rezaipour could make out a prima facie case, he has not raised a triable issue as to whether the non-discriminatory reasons given by the county for his termination were pretextual. See Patten v. Grant Joint Union High Sch. Dist., 134 Cal.App.4th 1378 , 37 Cal.Rptr.3d 113, 117 (2005).

AFFIRMED.
