                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Central District of California
                    Philip S. Gutierrez, District Judge, Presiding

                              Submitted June 22, 2015**

Before:        HAWKINS, GRABER, and W. FLETCHER, Circuit Judges.

      Qin Zhang appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment in her action

alleging federal and state law violations arising out of prior state court proceedings.

We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a district court’s

dismissal under the Rooker-Feldman doctrine. Noel v. Hall, 341 F.3d 1148, 1154

(9th Cir. 2003). We affirm.

      The district court properly dismissed Zhang’s federal claims sua sponte for

lack of subject matter jurisdiction under the Rooker-Feldman doctrine because the

claims were a forbidden “de facto appeal” of a prior state court judgment or were

“inextricably intertwined” with that judgment. See id. at 1163-65 (discussing

Rooker-Feldman doctrine); see also Henrichs v. Valley View Dev., 474 F.3d 609,

616 (9th Cir. 2007) (Rooker-Feldman doctrine barred plaintiff’s claim because the

relief sought “would require the district court to determine that the state court’s

decision was wrong and thus void”); Scholastic Entm’t, Inc. v. Fox Entm’t Grp.,

Inc., 336 F.3d 982, 985 (9th Cir. 2003) (a court may dismiss sua sponte for lack of

subject matter jurisdiction without violating due process).

      The district court properly dismissed Zhang’s state law claims due to the

absence of subject matter jurisdiction over any federal claims. See Scott v.

Pasadena Unified Sch. Dist., 306 F.3d 646, 664 (9th Cir. 2002) (a district court has

no discretion to retain supplemental jurisdiction over state law claims if it

dismisses federal claims for lack of subject matter jurisdiction).

      Zhang’s requests for judicial notice, set forth in her opening brief, are denied

as unnecessary.

      AFFIRMED.
