MEMORANDUM**

2
Christine Franklyn appeals pro se the district court's judgment, following a bench trial, in favor of Vista Del Mar ("Vista").  Vista is a non-profit residential treatment center which had employed Franklyn as a child care counselor from August 1986 until February 1988.  Franklyn brought an action under the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA"), 29 U.S.C. Sec. 207(a)(1), seeking the repayment of back wages she alleged Vista owed her for working overtime.1

3
"We review the district court's findings of fact for clear error and its interpretation of the FLSA de novo."  Drollinger v. State of Arizona, 962 F.2d 956, 958 (9th Cir.1992) (per curiam).  We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1291, and we dismiss this appeal.

4
Franklyn failed to provide a transcript of the lower court proceedings.  If an appellant fails to supply the relevant transcripts of a lower court proceeding, the appeal is subject to dismissal.  See Syncom Capital Corp. v. Wade, 924 F.2d 167, 169 (9th Cir.1991) (per curiam).  Here, having reviewed Franklyn's brief and examined its arguments, we conclude that the appeal should be dismissed.

5
APPEAL DISMISSED.

 The FLSA requires an employer to pay its employees for time worked in excess of forty hours a week at a rate one and one-half times the usual wage.  See 29 U.S.C. Sec. 207(A)(1)
