¶2Ivan C. Bryant appeals pro se the district court’s order dismissing his action for lack of jurisdiction. We have jurisdiction *778pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a dismissal for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. See Hexom v. Oregon Dep’t of Transp., 177 F.3d 1134, 1135 (9th Cir.1999). We affirm.
