                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                             for the District of Guam
           Frances Tydingco-Gatewood, Chief District Judge, Presiding

Before: THOMAS, Chief Judge, and HAWKINS and McKEOWN, Circuit
Judges.

   Sedfrey Linsangan appeals pro se from the district court’s order dismissing his

42 U.S.C. § 1983 action because he lacked standing. We have jurisdiction under 28

             The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo, Whitmore v. Fed. Election Comm’n, 68 F.3d

1212, 1214 (9th Cir.1996), and we affirm.

   “The ‘irreducible constitutional minimum of standing’ contains three parts: (1)

injury in fact; (2) causation; and (3) likelihood that the injury will be redressed by a

favorable decision.” Am. Civil Liberties Union of Nev. v. Lomax, 471 F.3d 1010,

1015 (9th Cir. 2006) (citation omitted).

   The district court properly dismissed Linsangan’s action for lack of standing

because Linsangan’s allegations of harm are not particularized or imminent. See

Lujan v. Defs. of Wildlife, 504 U.S. 555, 560 (1992). A plaintiff “must show that

he has suffered, or will imminently suffer, a concrete and particularized injury to a

judicially cognizable interest.” Davis v. Guam, 785 F.3d 1311, 1314 (9th Cir.

2015) (internal quotation marks and citation omitted). Linsangan’s allegation that

“he would like to run for Governor” but cannot under the current statutory

limitations does not state an imminent harm. See Lujan, 504 U.S. at 564 (“an

‘inten[t]’…is simply not enough”); Scott v. Pasadena Unified Sch. Dist., 306 F.3d

646, 656 (9th Cir. 2002) (“The mere existence of a statute, which may or may not

ever be applied to plaintiffs, is not sufficient to create a case or controversy within

the meaning of Article III.” (quotation marks and citation omitted)). The

remaining alleged injuries are not particularized to his situation; rather, they are

generalized grievances. See Carroll v. Nakatani, 342 F.3d 934, 940 (9th Cir. 2003)



                                           2
(holding that a “generalized grievance against allegedly illegal government

conduct” is insufficient to confer standing).

AFFIRMED.
