MATTHEW HUTCHESON,

                Defendant-Appellant.

                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                             for the District of Idaho
                    Edward J. Lodge, District Judge, Presiding

                           Submitted January 16, 2018**

Before:      REINHARDT, TROTT, and HURWITZ, Circuit Judges.

      Matthew Hutcheson appeals pro se from the district court’s summary

judgment in the U.S. Secretary of Labor’s action against him, alleging violations of

the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”). We have

             The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision

jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo, Columbia Pictures

Indus., Inc. v. Fung, 710 F.3d 1020, 1030 (9th Cir. 2013), and we affirm.

      The district court properly granted summary judgment because Hutcheson

failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether he engaged in a

prohibited transaction under ERISA in violation of his fiduciary duties. See 29

U.S.C. §§ 1104, 1106; see also United States v. Hutcheson, 603 Fed. App’x 613,

614 (9th Cir. 2015) (affirming, inter alia, Hutcheson’s conviction for wire fraud

counts related to the ERISA-covered plans at issue in this action).

      To the extent Hutcheson’s “motion for declaratory relief” or request for an

evidentiary hearing may be construed as requests to take discovery in order to

oppose summary judgment, Hutcheson failed to comply with the requirements of

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 56(d). See Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(d); Tatum v. City &

County of San Francisco, 441 F.3d 1090, 1100 (9th Cir. 2006) (a party seeking

additional time for discovery is required to “identify by affidavit the specific facts

that further discovery would reveal, and explain why those facts would preclude

summary judgment”).

      We reject as without merit Hutcheson’s contentions that the district court

erred by granting summary judgment notwithstanding his pending motion under 28

U.S.C. § 2255, and that the double jeopardy clause applies to this action.

      We do not consider issues or arguments not specifically and distinctly raised


                                           2                                    17-35076
in the opening brief, or arguments and allegations raised for the first time on

appeal. See Padgett v. Wright, 587 F.3d 983, 985 n.2 (9th Cir. 2009); United

States v. Elias, 921 F.2d 870, 874 (9th Cir. 1990) (“Documents or facts not

presented to the district court are not part of the record on appeal.”).

      Hutcheson’s request for judicial notice (Docket Entry No. 19) is denied.

      AFFIRMED.
