Lucia WONG, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. WELLS FARGO BANK, NA, Defendant-Appellee, 501 F. App'x 664

MEMORANDUM Lucia Wong appeals pro se from the district court’s

summary judgment in her diversity action alleging unlawful termination based on race or ancestry in violation of Washington state law. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo, Las Vegas Sands, LLC v. Nehme, 682 F.3d 526, 532 (9th Cir.2011), and we affirm. The district court properly granted

summary judgment because Wong failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether she was performing satisfactorily for purposes of a prima facie case of discrimination and, in any event, whether Wells Fargo’s legitimate, nondiscriminatory reason for terminating her was pretex-tual. See Milligan v. Thompson, 110 Wash.App. 628, 42 P.3d 418, 423 (2002) (stating elements for a prima facie case of discrimination and explaining burden shifting framework); see also Carmen v. S.F. Unified Sch. Dist., 237 F.3d 1026, 1028 (9th Cir.2001) (unsupported subjective statement about defendant’s motive is insufficient to defeat

summary judgment); F.T.C. v. Publ’g Clearing House, Inc., 104 F.3d 1168, 1171 (9th Cir.1997) (conclusory, self-serving affidavit lacking detailed facts and supporting evidence insufficient to create dispute of material fact). Contrary to Wong’s contention on appeal, Wells Fargo’s belief that Wong violated federal regulations constitutes a legitimate, nondiscriminatory reason for terminating her, even if Wong did not actually violate federal regulations. See Villiarimo v.

Aloha Island Air, Inc., 281 F.3d 1054, 1063 (9th Cir.2002) (“[Cjourts only require that an employer honestly believed its reason for its actions, even if its reason is foolish or trivial or even baseless.” (citation and internal quotation marks omitted)). AFFIRMED. This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
