MEMORANDUM ***

This matter has been stayed since August 11, 2017, pending issuance of the mandate in *Ho v. ReconTrust Co., N.A.,*No. 10-56884, or further order of the court. We hereby lift the stay.

Sabra Albritton appeals pro se from the district court’s order dismissing her action alleging Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (“FDCPA”) claims. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a dismissal under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) for failure to state a claim. *Kwan v. SanMedica Int’l,*854 F.3d 1088, 1093 (9th Cir. 2017). We affirm.

The district court properly dismissed Al-britton’s FDCPA claims against the Bank of New York Mellon Corp. (“BNYM”) because Albritton failed to allege facts sufficient to show that BNYM was a “debt collector” under the FDCPA. *See*15 U.S.C. § 1692a(6)(F)(ii) (excluding from the definition of “debt collector” a creditor collecting debts on its own behalf).

The district court properly dismissed Al-britton’s FDCPA claims against the remaining defendants because Albritton failed to allege facts sufficient to state plausible claims for relief under 15 U.S.C. §§ 1692d-1692g. *See Ashcroft v. Iqbal,*556 U.S. 662, 678, 129 S.Ct. 1937, 173 L,Ed.2d 868 (2009) (to avoid dismissal, “a complaint must contain sufficient factual matter, accepted as true, to state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face” (citation and internal quotation marks omitted)).

We do not consider the district court’s denial of Albritton’s request for a temporary restraining order because the denial is not appealable. *See Hunt v. Nat’l Broadcasting Co.,*872 F.2d 289, 292 (9th Cir. 1989) (“[T]he denial of a temporary restraining order is not generally appealable unless it effectively decides the merits of the case.... ” (citation omitted)).

*671The district court did not abuse its discretion by declining to take judicial notice of the endorsements of the note because Albritton failed to show that this information was relevant and “not subject to reasonable dispute.” Fed. R. Evid. 201(b); *United States v. Woods,*335 F.3d 993, 1000-01 (9th Cir. 2003) (setting forth standard of review).

We reject as without merit Albritton’s contentions regarding judicial bias.

Albritton’s request for a permanent injunction, set forth in the opening brief, is denied.

Albritton’s request for sanctions, set forth in Albritton’s objection to the notice of bankruptcy (Docket Entry No. 30), is denied.

AFFIRMED.
