CHRISTIANA TRUST, a division of
Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB as

                Defendant-Appellee.

                  Appeal from the United States District Court
                           for the District of Oregon
                  Marco A. Hernandez, District Judge, Presiding

                           Submitted October 23, 2017**

Before:      LEAVY, WATFORD, and FRIEDLAND, Circuit Judges.

      Tony Schwartz appeals from the district court’s judgment dismissing his

action alleging violations of federal statutes related to his mortgage loan. We have

jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a dismissal under Fed. R.

             This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
      **
             The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
Civ. P. 12(b)(6). Cervantes v. Countrywide Home Loans, Inc., 656 F.3d 1034,

1040 (9th Cir. 2011).

      The district court properly dismissed Schwartz’s Truth in Lending Act

(“TILA”) claim because Schwartz did not send a notice of rescission to defendant

within three years of consummation of the loan. See 15 U.S.C. § 1635(f)

(providing a right of rescission within three years of the date of the consummation

of a loan if the lender fails to make required disclosures to the borrower); Jesinoski

v. Countrywide Home Loans, Inc., 135 S. Ct. 790, 792 (2015) (a borrower may

exercise right of rescission by notifying the lender of borrower’s intent to rescind

within three years after the transaction is consummated); Miguel v. Country

Funding Corp., 309 F.3d 1161, 1164 (9th Cir. 2002) (“[Section] 1635(f) is a statute

of repose, depriving the courts of subject matter jurisdiction when a § 1635 claim

is brought outside the three-year limitation period.”). We reject as without merit

Schwartz’s contention that the subject loan transaction was not consummated.

      The district court properly dismissed Schwartz’s Fair Debt Collection

Practices Act claim because it was based solely on his TILA claim.

      We do not consider matters not specifically and distinctly raised and argued

in the opening brief. See Padgett v. Wright, 587 F.3d 983, 985 n.2 (9th Cir. 2009).

      AFFIRMED.
