court’s judgments in their action alleging violations of state and federal law in

connection with a non-judicial foreclosure. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C.

§ 1291. We review for an abuse of discretion the district court’s dismissal for

failure to comply with its local rules. Ghazali v. Moran, 46 F.3d 52, 53 (9th Cir.

1995) (per curiam). We affirm.

      The district court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing plaintiffs’ claims

against defendants Deutsche Bank National Trust Co., JP Morgan Chase Bank,

N.A., Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc., and WMC Mortgage

Corporation because plaintiffs failed to oppose these defendants’ motions to

dismiss. See C.D. Cal. R. 7-9 (requiring the filing of an opposition or statement of

non-opposition to a motion to dismiss); C.D. Cal. R. 7-12 (providing that the

failure to file any required document may be deemed consent to the granting or

denial of the motion); Ghazali, 46 F.3d at 53-54 (setting forth factors to be

considered before dismissing an action for failure to follow the local rules,

affirming dismissal for failure to file opposition to motion to dismiss, and noting

that pro se litigants are bound by the rules of procedure).

      We reject defendant WMC Mortgage Corporation’s argument that this court

lacks appellate jurisdiction over plaintiffs’ appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 4(b)(2) (“A

notice of appeal filed after the court announces a decision, sentence, or order–but

the entry.”)

      Defendants Deutsche Bank National Trust Co., JP Morgan Chase Bank,

N.A., and Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc.’s Motion to Take

Judicial Notice, filed on December 17, 2013, is granted.

      AFFIRMED.
