MEMORANDUM

James Singh appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment in this diversity action alleging state law claims stemming from defendants’ attempted foreclosure on his home. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 . We review de novo the 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., 666 F.3d 1034, 1040 (9th Cir. 2011). We affirm.

The district court properly dismissed Singh’s claim for relief based on an alleged violation of Cal. Civ. Code § 2934a(a)(1)(A) because the documents attached to the complaint and in the public record established a valid substitution of trustee by the present beneficiary under the Deed of Trust. See Daniels-Hall v. Nat’l Educ. Ass’n, 629 F.3d 992, 998 (9th Cir. 2010) (court not required to accept as true allegations that contradict exhibits attached to the complaint); see also Cal. Civ. Code § 2934a(d) (recorded substitution of trustee constitutes conclusive evidence of the authority of the substituted trustee).

Singh waived any challenge to the district court’s conclusion that his remaining claims were preempted by the Home Owners’ Loan Act (“HOLA”) because he failed to make any argument against preemption on appeal. See Padgett v. Wright, 587 F.3d 983, 985 n. 2 (9th Cir. 2009) (“This court will not ordinarily consider matters on appeal that are not specifically and distinctly raised and argued in appellant’s opening brief.” (citation and internal quotation marks omitted)). Because we affirm the dismissal of these claims as preempted by HOLA, we do not address the merits of Singh’s arguments as to the underlying claims.

The district court properly granted defendants’ motion to expunge the lis pen-dens because Singh failed to establish the probable validity of his real property claim. See Cal. Civ. Code § 405.32 (“[T]he court shall order that the notice be expunged if the court finds that the claimant has not established by a preponderance of the evidence the probable validity of the real property claim.”).

We reject as without merit Singh’s contention that the district court should have remanded thd case to state court sua sponte, as well as Singh’s contentions regarding the parties’ consent to proceed before a magistrate and the preclusive effect of the parties’ state unlawful detainer action.

Wells Fargo’s opposed motion for judicial notice, filed on November 10, 2015, is granted.

Singh’s motion for judicial notice, filed on November 25, 2015, is denied as unnecessary.

Singh’s motions for an extension of time to file his opening brief, filed on October 2, 2013 and October 15, 2013, are denied as moot.

Singh’s request for attorney’s fees and costs, set forth in his reply brief, is denied.

AFFIRMED.
