Opinion

MEMORANDUM²

Leon Sanders appeals pro se an order of the district court sua sponte dismissing his complaint for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. Because the district court intended its order to dismiss the action, we have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, see Nevada v. Burford, 918 F.2d 854, 855 (9th Cir.1990), and we affirm.

We review dismissals for lack of subject matter jurisdiction de novo. Crum v. Circus Circus Enters., 231 F.3d 1129, 1130-31 (9th Cir.2000). Because the complaint alleged damages below the jurisdictional limit of 28 U.S.C. § 1332, the district court properly dismissed the complaint without prejudice. Id.

AFFIRMED.
