Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Mary Strong appeals pro se from the district court's judgment dismissing her action against Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac") and other defendants related to a mortgage loan on her real property. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a dismissal under Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6). Cervantes v. Countrywide Home Loans, Inc., 656 F.3d 1034, 1040 (9th Cir. 2011). We affirm in part, vacate in part, and remand.
The district court properly dismissed as time-barred Strong's Truth in Lending Act ("TILA") rescission claim because Strong filed this action after the applicable statute of limitations had run. See 15 U.S.C. § 1635(f) (borrower has three years to rescind under TILA); Miguel v. Country Funding Corp., 309 F.3d 1161, 1164 (9th Cir. 2002) (three-year limitation period under TILA is a statute of repose that once expired completely extinguishes the underlying right).
The district court properly dismissed Strong's intentional infliction of emotional distress and fraud claims because Strong failed to allege facts sufficient to state plausible claims for relief, See Babick v. Or. Arena Corp., 333 Or. 401, 40 P.3d 1059, 1063 (2002) (setting forth elements of intentional infliction of emotional distress claim); Johnsen v. Mel-Ken Motors, 134 Or.App. 81, 894 P.2d 540, 545 (1995) (setting forth elements of fraud claim).
The district court dismissed Strong's "lack of standing to foreclose," quiet title, slander of title, and related declaratory relief claims after finding that Strong could not bring a cognizable claim based on her loan's securitization. However, the district court did not expressly consider plaintiffs allegation that Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc. ("MERS") could not act on its own authority as the beneficiary under the deed of trust. See Brandrup v. ReconTrust Co., N.A., 353 Or. 668, 303 P.3d 301, 304, 309-12 (2013) (en banc) ("For the purposes of [the Oregon Trust Deed Act] . an entity like MERS, which is not a lender, may not be a trust deed's 'beneficiary,' unless it is a lender's successor in interest."); see also Niday v. GMAC Mortg., LLC, 353 Or. 648, 302 P.3d 444, 453 (2013) (determining that summary judgment was improper where MERS was designated as "nominee" in the deed of trust but there was no additional evidence in the record of an agency relationship between MERS and the original lender). We vacate the judgment as to Strong's "lack of standing to foreclose," quiet title, slander of title, and related declaratory relief claims and remand for further proceedings in light of Brandrwp.
We do not consider documents or facts not presented to the district court. See United States v. Elias, 921 F.2d 870, 874 (9th Cir. 1990) ("Documents or facts not presented to the district court are not part of the record on appeal.").
Strong's pending motions (Docket Entry Nos. 8 and 9) are denied.
Appellees shall bear the costs on appeal.
AFFIRMED in part, VACATED in part, and REMANDED.
