MEMORANDUM

Imran Ahmah Jamali appeals pro se from the district court’s order dismissing his action alleging federal claims arising out of his arrest photograph. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 . We review de novo a dismissal under Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(1). Rhoades v. Avon Prods., Inc., 504 F.3d 1151, 1156 (9th Cir. 2007). We may affirm on any basis supported by the record. Thompson v. Paul, 547 F.3d 1055, 1058-59 (9th Cir. 2008). We affirm.

Dismissal of Jamali’s federal claims was proper because Jamali failed to allege facts sufficient to state any plausible claim for relief. See Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678 , 129 S.Ct. 1937 , 173 L.Ed.2d 868 (2009) (to avoid dismissal, “a complaint must contain sufficient factual matter, accepted as true, to state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face” (citation and internal quotation marks omitted)); see also Atwater v. City of Lago Vista, 532 U.S. 318, 355 , 121 S.Ct. 1536 , 149 L.Ed.2d 549 (2001) (an arrest and booking process that included photographing the arrestee was “not so extraordinary as to violate the Fourth Amendment”); Paul v. Davis, 424 U.S. 693, 712-13 , 96 S.Ct. 1155 , 47 L.Ed.2d 405 (1976)…
