Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Patrick Crosby appeals pro se from the district court's judgment dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action arising from state court unlawful detainer proceedings against him and from the towing of his car. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo. Miller v. Yokohama Tire Corp., 358 F.3d 616, 619 (9th Cir.2004). We may affirm on any ground supported by the record. O'Guinn v. Lovelock Corr. Ctr., 502 F.3d 1056, 1059 (9th Cir.2007). We affirm.
The district court properly dismissed the action because Crosby's challenge to the constitutionality of various California statutes fails as a matter of law. See Lindsey v. Normet, 405 U.S. 56, 64-74, 92 S.Ct. 862, 31 L.Ed.2d 36 (1972) (unlawful detainer statutes); Scofield v. City of Hillsborough, 862 F.2d 759, 764 (9th Cir.1988) (towing provisions). To the extent that Crosby seeks to transfer his appeal of the unlawful detainer judgment from state court to federal court, the request is moot because that appeal has been resolved.
We do not consider facts and arguments raised for the first time on appeal, and arguments not raised in Crosby's opening brief are deemed waived. See Smith v. Marsh, 194 F.3d 1045, 1052 (9th Cir.1999).
Crosby's remaining contentions are unpersuasive.
Crosby's motion for leave to file two separate reply briefs is granted. The Clerk shall file the reply briefs submitted on May 19, 2009.
AFFIRMED.
