MOLLY C. DWYER, CLER K U.S. COURT OF APPEAL S2

judgment in favor of the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”)

. The Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”) is the conservator of
Fannie Mae. See 12 U.S.C. § § 4511, 4617. The Federal Foreclosure Bar in § 4617 (j)(3) provides that no property of an FHFA conservatorship can be
foreclosed without FHFA’s consent. A Nevada s tate statute provides homeowners’ associations with super

- priority liens that they can exercise to recover delinquent
HOA dues. See Nev. Rev. Stat. § 116.3116

. In 2013, KKRE purchased real property (the “Property”) at a homeowners ’
association foreclosure sale. At the time of the sale, Fannie Mae held a n ownership interest in the Property and later filed an action to quiet title and for declaratory
relief. The district court granted summary judgment in favor of Fannie Mae and
held that since Fannie Mae was subject to an FHFA conservatorship at the time of the foreclosure sale, and FHFA did not consent to foreclosure, Fannie Mae’s interest in the Property survived the foreclosure sale.
KKRE timely appealed , and we have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C

. § 1291

. Be cause t he dist rict court’s decision was in accord with th is Court’s prior decisions addressing this exact issue , se e , e.g. , Fed. Home Loan Mortg. Corp. v. SFR Invs

. Pool 1, LLC , 893 F.3d 1136 (9th Cir. 2018), cert. denied , 139 S. Ct. 1618 (2019) ; Berezovsky v. Moniz , 869 F.3d 923 (9th Cir. 2017) , we affirm.
1. KKRE argues that the homeowners’ association had a superpriority3

lien pursuant to Nevada Revised Statute § 116.3116 permitting it to sell the Property without FHFA’s consent. However, that st atu t e is preempted by the
Federal Foreclosure Bar. See Fed. Home Loan , 893 F.3d at 1147 (“ We see no cause to disturb our precedential decision, and continue to hold that the Federal Foreclosure Bar preempts the Nevada Foreclosure Statute

. ”).
2. KKRE argues th at Fannie Mae neglected to provide adequate evidence of its property interest. But, Fannie Mae provided sufficient evidence in the form of business records and publicly recorded documents. See Berezovsky , 869 F.3d at 933 & n. 8.
3. KKRE argues that the Federal Foreclosure Bar is unconstitutional because it deprives parties of a property interest in violation of due process of law. But, KKRE lacks standing to bring a due process claim on behalf of the
homeowners’ association. See Berezovsky , 869 F.3d at 9 27 n.2 (citing Lujan v. Defs. o f Wildlife , 504 U.S. 555, 560 (1992)).
4. KKRE argues that the district court’s entry of summary judgement prior to any discovery being conducted by the parties was reversible error. Fannie
Mae , however , offered eviden ce of its interest in the Property , and KKRE offered
no evidence to the contrary nor suggested that such evidence exists

. Since KKRE failed to “do more than simply show that there is some metaphysical doubt as to the material facts, ” Matsushita Elec. Indus . Co. v. Zenith Radio Corp. , 475 U.S.4

574, 586 (1986) , the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying KKRE’s Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(d) request for discovery. For these reasons, the district court’s judgment is AFFIRMED.
