PER CURIAM

       Chris Ann Jaye, proceeding pro se, appeals from orders of the United States

District Court for the District of New Jersey dismissing her civil rights action and her

post-judgment motion for reconsideration. For the reasons that follow, we will affirm.

       Jaye filed a complaint pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and the New Jersey Civil

Rights Act, which she later amended in response to an order directing her to comply with

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 8(a), alleging that various New Jersey state court judges,

state court staff, and the New Jersey Attorney General and Deputy Attorney General

violated her rights in connection with several state court cases. Those cases involve an

ongoing dispute between Jaye and her condominium association regarding unpaid

condominium fees. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss. The District Court dismissed

the second amended complaint, determining that it still failed to comply with the

requirements of Rule 8(a) and that, in any event, Jaye’s claims were subject to dismissal

for lack of subject matter jurisdiction pursuant to the Rooker-Feldman doctrine. The


*

constitute binding precedent.


                                             2
District Court’s order also “terminated” various other motions that Jaye had filed in the

case, including motions to stay the state court proceedings. Jaye timely appealed. She

also filed a “Motion to Vacate,” which the District Court denied. Jaye filed another

notice of appeal.

       We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. Our review of the dismissal of

the complaint is de novo. See Allah v. Seiverling, 229 F.3d 220, 223 (3d Cir. 2000); cf.

Turner v. Crawford Square Apartments III, L.P., 449 F.3d 542, 547 (3d Cir. 2006)

(exercising plenary review over district court’s invocation of the Rooker-Feldman

doctrine). We review for abuse of discretion the District Court’s order denying Jaye’s

motion for reconsideration. See Jackson v. Danberg, 656 F.3d 157, 162 (3d Cir. 2011).

We may affirm on any basis supported by the record. See Fairview Twp. v. EPA, 773

F.2d 517, 525 n.15 (3d Cir. 1985).

       The Rooker-Feldman doctrine deprives a District Court of jurisdiction to review,

in some circumstances, a state court adjudication.1 See Turner, 449 F.3d at 547. In

Exxon Mobil Corp. v. Saudi Basic Industries Corp., 544 U.S. 280, 284 (2005), the

Supreme Court emphasized the narrow scope of the Rooker-Feldman doctrine, holding

that it “is confined to . . . cases brought by state-court losers complaining of injuries

caused by state-court judgments rendered before the district court proceedings

commenced and inviting district court review and rejection of those judgments.” It is

difficult to fully determine the status of all of Jaye’s state court cases, as she has filed


1
 The doctrine is derived from Rooker v. Fidelity Trust Co., 263 U.S. 413 (1923), and
District of Columbia Court of Appeals v. Feldman, 460 U.S. 462 (1983).

                                               3
several different lawsuits concerning her condominium fees. But at least some of her

claims seek relief for injuries caused by judgments that were entered against her before

she commenced the underlying action. To the extent that is the case, the District Court

correctly determined that those claims are barred by the Rooker-Feldman doctrine. See

Great W. Mining & Mineral Co. v. Fox Rothschild LLP, 615 F.3d 159, 165 (3d Cir.

2010) (stating that the Rooker-Feldman doctrine deprives lower federal courts of

jurisdiction over suits that are essentially appeals from state-court judgments).

       To the extent, however, that Jaye’s claims stem from rulings in matters that are

ongoing in state court, those claims are not barred under the Rooker-Feldman doctrine.

Nevertheless, they are subject to dismissal on other grounds.2 In particular, the New

Jersey Attorney General and Deputy Attorney General are immune from suit for money

damages under the Eleventh Amendment. See Pa. Fed’n of Sportsmen’s Clubs, Inc. v.

Hess, 297 F.3d 310, 323 (3d Cir. 2002) (“[T]he Eleventh Amendment … has been

interpreted to render states—and, by extension, state agencies and departments and

officials when the state is the real party in interest—generally immune from suit by


2
  Jaye sought to stay any ongoing state court proceedings, but the District Court properly
denied this request. The Anti-Injunction Act provides that “[a] court of the United States
may not grant an injunction to stay proceedings in a State court except as expressly
authorized by Act of Congress, or where necessary in aid of its jurisdiction, or to protect
or effectuate its judgments.” 28 U.S.C. § 2283. These exceptions do not apply here.
Only the “necessary in aid of its jurisdiction” exception is even remotely relevant to this
action and, as we have explained, it applies only when the state court proceedings “so
interfere with a federal court’s consideration or disposition of a case as to seriously
impair the federal court’s flexibility to decide that case.” 1975 Salaried Ret. Plan for
Eligible Emps. of Crucible, Inc. v. Nobers, 968 F.2d 401, 408 (3d Cir. 1992) (citation and
internal quotation marks omitted). The circumstances of this case do not meet this
standard.

private parties in federal court.”); see also Pennhurst State Sch. & Hosp. v. Halderman,

465 U.S. 89, 119-20 (1984) (holding that the Eleventh Amendment bars state law claims

against state officials in federal court). In addition, the named judges (and members of

their staff and court personnel) are immune from suit to the extent they were sued in their

individual and official capacities. See Stump v. Sparkman, 435 U.S. 349, 356-57 (1978)

(judges immune from suit unless they act in complete absence of jurisdiction); Gallas v.

Supreme Court of Pa., 211 F.3d 760, 772-73 (3d Cir. 2000) (court personnel entitled to

quasi-judicial immunity for alleged acts pursuant to judge’s instructions). Jaye did not

set forth information which might suggest that the judges in her cases acted in the

absence of all jurisdiction. Nor did she set forth information which might show that court

personnel acted contrary to judicial instruction. Rather, Jaye appears to be merely

dissatisfied with the judicial rulings against her. See Azubuko v. Royal, 443 F.3d 302,

303 (3d Cir. 2006) (per curiam) (“A judicial officer in the performance of his duties has

absolute immunity from suit and will not be liable for his judicial acts.”).

       The District Court also did not abuse its discretion in denying Jaye’s “Motion to

Vacate.” That motion, which the District Court treated as seeking relief under Federal

Rule of Civil Procedure 60(b)(3), alleged that the defendants’ motion to dismiss

mischaracterized the finality of her state court judgments, misinterpreted her claims as

arising out of those judgments, and misapplied the Rooker-Feldman doctrine. Rather

than identify instances of fraud or misconduct, however, these allegations challenge the

substance of the Defendants’ arguments. See Stridiron v. Stridiron, 698 F.2d 204, 206-07

(3d Cir. 1983) (to prevail under Rule 60(b)(3) the moving party must establish that the


                                              5
adverse party engaged in fraud or other misconduct, and that this misconduct prevented

the moving party from fully and fairly presenting her case). Indeed, Jaye’s “Motion to

Vacate” essentially sought to relitigate issues the District Court had already decided. But

Rule 60(b) relief is available “only in cases evidencing extraordinary circumstances” and

is not a substitute for an appeal. Morris v. Horn, 187 F.3d 333, 341 (3d Cir. 1999).

       For the foregoing reasons, we will affirm the judgment of the District Court.3

  Jaye’s motion to expand the record and the Appellees’ motion for leave to file a
supplemental appendix are granted. But we deny Jaye’s motion to strike Appellees’ brief
and their motion for leave to file a supplemental appendix, as well as her opposition to
the Appellees’ submission of a supplemental appendix. We also deny Jaye’s motion for
judicial notice, her motion to summarily set aside, her motion to summarily remand, and
her letter titled “Still Waiting on Reason for Basis for Delay.” To the extent that Jaye’s
letter captioned “Judge Shipp is Unfit to Act as a Federal Judge” seeks his
disqualification, relief is denied. We also deny Jaye’s “Emergent Injunctive Relief to
Stay All Federal Cases and Motion to Transfer Case and Appeal to a Neutral Venue” and
her “Motion for Emergent Change of Venue.”
