 v.

FEDERAL NATIONAL MORTGAGE

              Defendants-Appellees.


                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                             for the District of Nevada
                     James C. Mahan, District Judge, Presiding

                          Submitted December 14, 2016**

             The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
      Aydin T. Oner appeals pro se from the district court’s order dismissing his

bankruptcy appeal for failure to file an opening brief. We have jurisdiction under

28 U.S.C. §§ 158(d), 1291. We review for abuse of discretion a district court’s

dismissal for failure to prosecute. Moneymaker v. CoBen (In re Eisen), 31 F.3d

1447, 1451 (9th Cir. 1994). We affirm.

      The district court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing Oner’s appeal

after granting Oner two extensions of time to file an opening brief and warning that

a failure to comply may result in dismissal. The district court properly exercised

its discretion in determining that the delay prejudiced defendants and interfered

with the district court’s ability to manage its docket. See id. (“A reviewing court

will give deference to the district court to decide what is unreasonable because it is

in the best position to determine what period of delay can be endured before its

docket becomes unmanageable” (citation and internal quotation marks omitted)).

      Because we affirm the district court’s dismissal for failure to prosecute, we

do not consider Oner’s challenges to the bankruptcy court’s decisions or the

district court’s interlocutory orders. See Morrissey v. Stuteville (In re Morrissey),

349 F.3d 1187, 1190 (9th Cir. 2003); Al-Torki v. Kaempen, 78 F.3d 1381, 1386

(9th Cir. 1996).

      AFFIRMED.
