SEASIDE TRUSTEE, INC., a California corporation,

Defendant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Central District of California Jacqueline H. Nguyen, District Judge, Presiding

* This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3. Submitted August 10, 2012 ** Pasadena, California

Before: SILVERMAN and WARDLAW, Circuit Judges, and FOGEL, District Judge***

Plaintiffs-Appellants St. Anthony Fish Farm, Inc. and Greg Phillips

(collectively, “Plaintiffs”) appeal the district court’s dismissal of their action

challenging a trustee’s sale of real property. The district court concluded that a

prior bankruptcy court decision had adjudicated the validity of the trustee’s sale

and that Plaintiffs’ claims thus were barred by the doctrine of collateral estoppel.

We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We adopt the well-reasoned

decision of the district court.

AFFIRMED.

** The panel unanimously concludes that this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). *** The Honorable Jeremy Fogel, District Judge, United States District Court for the Northern District of California, sitting by designation.
