Anthony W. RECTOR, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. WELLS FARGO DEALER SERVICES; Nadine Garcia, Defendants-Appellees, 672 F. App'x 779

MEMORANDUM Anthony W. Rector appeals pro se from the district court’s

summary judgment in his action alleging violations of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (“TCPA”), the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (“FDCPA”), and for invasion of privacy. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo, Toguchi v. Chung, 391 F.3d 1051, 1056 (9th Cir. 2004), and we affirm. The district court properly granted

summary judgment on Rector’s TCPA claim because Rector failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether defendants used an automatic telephone dialing system to call Rector. See Meyer v. Portfolio Recovery Assocs., LLC, 707 F.3d 1036, 1043 (9th Cir. 2012) (setting forth elements of a TCPA claim, including that defendant, must have used “an automatic telephone dialing system”). The district court properly granted

summary judgment on Rector’s FDCPA claim because Rector failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether defendants were debt collectors within the meaning of the FDCPA. See 15 U.S.C. § 1692a(6)(F)(iii) (“[D]ebt collector” does not include “any person collecting or attempting to collect any debt owed ... to the extent such activity ... concerns a debt which was not in default at the time it was obtained by such person.”); De Dios v. Int’l Realty & Invs., 641 F.3d 1071, 1074 (9th Cir. 2011) (holding that defendant was not a “debt collector” for purposes of the FDCPA where it acquired plaintiff’s debt before it was in default). The district court properly granted

summary judgment on Rector’s invasion of privacy claim because Rector failed to . raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether defendants’ conduct would be highly offensive to a reasonable person. See Deteresa v. Am. Broad. Cos., Inc., 121 F.3d 460, 465 (9th Cir. 1997) (setting forth elements under California law of a claim for invasion of privacy by intrusion upon seclusion). We do not consider matters not specifically and distinctly raised and argued in the opening brief, or arguments and allegations raised for the first time on appeal. See Padgett v. Wright, 587 F.3d 983, 985 n.2 (9th Cir. 2009).

AFFIRMED. This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
