Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California Troy L. Nunley, District Judge, Presiding

* This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3. Submitted February 21, 2024**

Before: FERNANDEZ, NGUYEN, and OWENS, Circuit Judges.

Amia L. Bryant appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing

her action alleging discrimination under the Fair Housing Act and other claims in

connection with a government housing program. We have jurisdiction under 28

U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a dismissal under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2).

Watison v. Carter, 668 F.3d 1108, 1112 (9th Cir. 2012). We affirm.

The district court properly dismissed Bryant’s Fair Housing Act claims

because Bryant failed to allege facts sufficient to show that defendants

discriminated against her on the basis of a protected status. See 42 U.S.C. § 3604

(setting forth protected grounds under the Fair Housing Act); Avenue 6E Inv., LLC

v. City of Yuma, Ariz., 818 F.3d 493, 502-03 (9th Cir. 2016) (explaining that the

Fair Housing Act requires either intentional discrimination because of a person’s

protected characteristic or a discriminatory effect on a protected class).

We reject as unsupported by the record Bryant’s contentions that the district

court violated her constitutional rights.

We do not consider arguments and allegations raised for the first time on

appeal or documents not filed with the district court. See Padgett v. Wright, 587

** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).

2 23-15287 F.3d 983, 985 n.2 (9th Cir. 2009); United States v. Elias, 921 F.2d 870, 874 (9th

Cir. 1990).

All pending motions are denied.

AFFIRMED.
