Carmen Suarez-Smith v. Bac Home Loan Servicing, Lp

512 F. App'x 722
Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit·Decided March 21, 2013·No. 11-17509·Unpublished

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Carmen Suarez-Smith appeals pro se from the district court’s order dismissing her complaint with leave to amend in her action arising out of foreclosure proceedings. We must raise the question of our jurisdiction sua sponte. WMX Tech., Inc. v. Miller, 104 F.3d 1183, 1135 (9th Cir.1997) (en banc). We dismiss for lack of appellate jurisdiction.

The district court dismissed Suarez-Smith’s complaint with leave to amend by November 14, 2011. Rather than filing an amended complaint or obtaining a final order of dismissal from the district court, Suarez-Smith filed a notice of appeal. We therefore lack jurisdiction. See id. at 1135-37 (a district court’s dismissal that expressly grants leave to amend is not final, and a further district court determination must be obtained before such a case becomes appealable).

DISMISSED.
