                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                             for the District of Arizona

proceedings. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo.

Cervantes v. Countrywide Home Loans, Inc., 656 F.3d 1034, 1040 (9th Cir. 2011).

We affirm.

      The district court properly dismissed the Sparlins’ actions because, despite

detailed instructions from the court on how to cure the defects in their original

complaints, the Sparlins failed to allege any specific facts in their amended

complaint showing that they were entitled to relief on any of their seven federal

and state law claims. See Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678 (2009) (“Threadbare

recitals of the elements of a cause of action, supported by mere conclusory

statements, do not suffice.”); see also Zadrozny v. Bank of N.Y. Mellon, 720 F.3d

1163, 1171 (9th Cir. 2013) (“Arizona law recognizes a successor trustee’s

authority to initiate and conduct a foreclosure sale after the borrowers’ default,

without any requirement that the beneficiary demonstrate possession of the note

underlying the deed of trust.”).

      The Sparlins’ contentions regarding the denial of discovery, their requests

for admissions, and lack of subject matter jurisdiction are unpersuasive.

      We do not consider the Sparlins’ arguments, raised for the first time in their

reply brief, regarding defendants alleged failure to provide a credible witness. See

Graves v. Arpaio, 623 F.3d 1043, 1048 (9th Cir. 2010) (per curiam).

      AFFIRMED.
