Tifarah C. MCDANIEL, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Jim MATTIS, Secretary, Department of Defense, Agency (DFAS), Defendant-Appellee, 703 F. App'x 466

MEMORANDUM Tifarah C. McDaniel appeals pro se from the district court’s

summary judgment in her action alleging federal claims in connection with her employment. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo. Vasquez v. County of Los Angeles, 349 F.3d 634, 639 (9th Cir. 2003). We may affirm on any basis supported by the record, Gordon v. Virturmmdo, Inc., 575 F.3d 1040, 1047 (9th Cir. 2009), and we affirm. The district court properly granted

summary judgment on McDaniel’s race discrimination claim because McDaniel failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether she was performing according to her employer’s expectations and that similarly situated employees outside her protected class were treated more favorably, or whether her employer’s legitimate, non-discriminatory reasons for terminating her employment were pretextual. See Vasquez, 349 F.3d at 640-41 (setting forth prima facie case of discrimination and burden shifting requirements under Title VII). To the extent McDaniel alleged a hostile work environment claim,

summary judgment was proper because McDaniel failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether she was subjected to conduct that was severe or pervasive enough to alter the conditions of her employment. See id. at 642 (to demonstrate a hostile work environment, plaintiff must establish that the conduct was sufficiently severe or pervasive to alter the conditions of employment and create an abusive work environment). The district court properly granted

summary judgment on McDaniel’s disability discrimination claim because McDaniel failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether she had a disability as defined by the Rehabilitation Act. See Walton v. U.S. Marshals Serv., 492 F.3d 998, 1005 (9th Cir. 2007) (a disability discrimination claim requires that a plaintiff demonstrate that she “is a person with a disability”; an individual who has “a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more of the [individual’s] major life activities” qualifies as disabled).

We do not consider documents and facts not presented to the district court. See United States v. Elias, 921 F.2d 870, 874 (9th Cir. 1990) (“Documents or facts not presented to the district court are not part of the record on appeal.”). 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.
