   MEMORANDUM

Akram Yassin appeals pro se from the district court’s orders denying his motion to vacate summary judgment in the government’s action to revoke his United States citizenship under 8 U.S.C. § 1451(a), and granting the government’s motion to enforce the judgment. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review for an abuse of discretion. Casey v. Albertson’s Inc., 362 F.3d 1254, 1257 (9th Cir.2004). We affirm.

The district court did not abuse its discretion in denying Yassin’s motion to vacate summary judgment and granting the government’s motion to enforce the judgment, because Yassin failed to establish that the judgment was obtained through fraud, and did not explain why he could not have discovered this alleged fraud pri- or to the judgment. See Fed.R.Civ.P. 60(b)(3); Casey, 362 F.3d at 1260 (to prevail on a Rule 60(b)(3) motion the moving party must prove that the judgment was obtained through fraud, and that the fraud was not discoverable by due diligence before or during proceedings); see also Cal. Dep’t of Social Services v. Leavitt, 523 F.3d 1025, 1031 (9th Cir.2008) (reviewing for an abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to enforce a judgment).

We reject Yassin’s contention that the district court erred in denying his motion for appointment of counsel.

We also reject Yassin’s contentions that due to the existence of an allegedly identical prior lawsuit the district court lacked jurisdiction over the current lawsuit and he has been subjected to double jeopardy, that the district court improperly denied him discovery, and that the district court improperly refused to file Yassin’s letter concerning his inquiries regarding his prison mail.

We lack jurisdiction to consider Yassin’s appeal of the district court’s 2012 summary judgment because Yassin failed to file a. timely Notice of Appeal from entry of judgment or a timely tolling motion. See Fed. RApp. P. § 4(a)(1)(B)®, (a)(4)(A)(vi).

Yassin’s request for appointment of counsel in connection with this appeal, set forth in his opening brief, is denied.

AFFIRMED.
