Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Curtis Renee Jackson, a California state prisoner, appeals pro se from the district court's summary judgment in his action alleging violations of the Freedom of Information Act ("FOIA") and the Privacy Act. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo, Watkins v. U.S. Bureau of Customs & Border Prat., 643 F.3d 1189, 1194 (9th Cir.2011), and we affirm.
The district court properly granted summary judgment on Jackson's FOIA claim because the record demonstrates that defendant conducted an adequate search. See Citizens Comm'n on Human Rights v. FDA, 45 F.3d 1325, 1328 (9th Cir.1995) (affidavits are sufficient to demonstrate the adequacy of a search if they are detailed, nonconclusory, and not impugned by evidence of bad faith).
The district court properly granted summary judgment on Jackson's Privacy Act claim because Jackson failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether defendant's failure to maintain his records led to an adverse action by defendant. See Houlihan v. Office of Pers. Mgmt., 909 F.2d 383, 384-85 (9th Cir.1990) (per curiam) (to bring a claim against an agency under the Privacy Act, a plaintiff must demonstrate a causal connection between the failure to maintain records and an adverse action by the agency).
Denial of Jackson's untimely motion for an extension of time to oppose summary judgment was proper because Jackson failed to satisfy the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 56(d). See Clark v. Capital Credit & Collection Servs., Inc., 460 F.3d 1162, 1178 (9th Cir.2006) (setting forth the standard of review); Tatum v. City & County of San Francisco, 441 F.3d 1090, 1100 (9th Cir.2006) (setting forth requirements under former Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(f)).
AFFIRMED.
