                    Appeal from the United States District Court

                    Dean D. Pregerson, District Judge, Presiding

                              Submitted April 7, 2014**

Before:        TASHIMA, GRABER, and IKUTA, Circuit Judges.

       Paula Skerston, an attorney, appeals pro se from the district court’s summary

judgment in her 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging violations of her Fourth

Amendment rights. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de

novo, Ramirez v. City of Buena Park, 560 F.3d 1012, 1019 (9th Cir. 2009), and we

affirm.

      The district court properly granted summary judgment because Skerston

failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether defendants lacked

reasonable suspicion to conduct an investigatory stop. See Liberal v. Estrada, 632

F.3d 1064, 1077 (9th Cir. 2011) (reasonable suspicion requires that an officer have

“specific, articulable facts which, together with objective and reasonable

inferences, form the basis for suspecting that the particular person detained is

engaged in criminal activity” (citation and internal quotation marks omitted)); see

also Hiibel v. Sixth Judicial Dist. Court of Nev., Humboldt Cnty., 542 U.S. 177,

186 (2004) (inquiry into a suspect’s identity is a “routine and accepted” part of an

investigatory stop and serves important government interests, including informing

an officer that the suspect is wanted for any other offense).

      AFFIRMED.
