                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                  for the District of the Northern Mariana Islands
                  Ramona V. Manglona, District Judge, Presiding

Information Act (“FOIA”). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We

review de novo. Kwan v. SanMedica Int’l, 854 F.3d 1088, 1093 (9th Cir. 2017)

(dismissal under Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6)); Watison v. Carter, 668 F.3d 1108, 1112

(9th Cir. 2012) (dismissal under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii)); In re Gallagher,

548 F.3d 713, 716 (9th Cir. 2008) (denial of mandamus). We affirm.

      The district court properly denied Fargo’s mandamus claims because Fargo

failed to allege facts sufficient to demonstrate entitlement to mandamus relief. See

Patel v. Reno, 134 F.3d 929, 931 (9th Cir. 1997) (stating that mandamus is an

“extraordinary remedy” and setting forth the requirements for mandamus relief).

      The district court properly dismissed Fargo’s claims related to his FOIA

request because Fargo failed to exhaust administrative remedies. See In re Steele,

799 F.2d 461, 465 (9th Cir. 1986) (“Exhaustion of . . . administrative remedies is

required under the FOIA before that party can seek judicial review.”).

      We reject as meritless Fargo’s contentions that the district court erred by

consolidating his cases and by refusing to adjudicate the history of his immigration

status dating back to 2002.

      We do not consider documents not filed with the district court. See United

States v. Elias, 921 F.2d 870, 874 (9th Cir. 1990).

      All pending motions are denied.

      AFFIRMED.
