   The Honorable Rosemary Marquez, United States District Judge for the District
of Arizona, sitting by designation.
      Plaintiff-Appellant Jennifer Schoultz (“Schoultz”) appeals from the United

States District Court for the Central District of California’s grant of summary

       judgment in favor of Defendant-Appellee Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells

Fargo”) on Schoultz’s claims under the California Fair Employment and Housing

Act (“FEHA”). Our review is de novo. Devereaux v. Abbey, 263 F.3d 1070, 1074

(9th Cir. 2001) (en banc). “We must determine, viewing the evidence in the light

most favorable to the nonmoving party, whether there are any genuine issues of

material fact and whether the district court correctly applied the substantive law.”

Adcock v. Chrysler Corp., 166 F.3d 1290, 1292 (9th Cir. 1999); see also Fed. R.

Civ. P. 56(a).

      The district court correctly granted summary judgment in Wells Fargo’s

favor on Schoultz’s disability discrimination and retaliation claims after applying

the burden-shifting test established by the United States Supreme Court in

McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Green, 411 U.S. 792 (1973). See Guz v. Bechtel Nat'l

Inc., 24 Cal. 4th 317, 354 (2000) (McDonnell Douglas test applies to FEHA

disability discrimination claims based on a theory of disparate treatment); Sada v.

Robert F. Kennedy Med. Ctr., 56 Cal. App. 4th 138, 155 (1997) (McDonnell

Douglas test applies to FEHA retaliation claims). Wells Fargo presented

competent, admissible evidence of a legitimate reason for its failure to hire

Schoultz, and Schoultz failed to establish a genuine factual dispute that Wells
Fargo’s proffered reason was a pretext for unlawful discrimination or retaliation. In

the absence of a triable claim for disability discrimination, Schoultz’s claim for

failure to prevent discrimination failed as a matter of law. See Trujillo v. N. Cty.

Transit Dist., 63 Cal. App. 4th 280, 289 (1998).

      The district court also correctly granted summary judgment in Wells Fargo’s

favor on Schoultz’s claims for failure to accommodate and failure to engage in the

interactive process, because it was undisputed that Schoultz did not notify anyone at

Wells Fargo, when she applied for a Collector 1 position in 2013, that she

potentially needed accommodation for a disability. See Arteaga v. Brink’s, Inc.,

163 Cal. App. 4th 327, 349 (2008).

      AFFIRMED.
