except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
                          Submitted February 17, 2015**

Before:        O’SCANNLAIN, LEAVY, and FERNANDEZ, Circuit Judges.

      Abby Jo Ovitsky appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment

dismissing her action alleging violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act

(“ADA”) and various state law claims. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C.

§ 1291. We review de novo a dismissal for lack of standing, Canatella v.

California, 304 F.3d 843, 852 (9th Cir. 2002), and we affirm.

      The district court properly dismissed Ovitsky’s claim for injunctive relief

under the ADA because Ovitsky failed to allege a “real and immediate threat of

repeated injury in the future.” Chapman v. Pier 1 Imps. (U.S.) Inc., 631 F.3d 939,

946, 949 (9th Cir. 2011) (en banc) (citation and internal quotation marks omitted).

      We do not consider matters not specifically and distinctly raised and argued

in the opening brief. See Padgett v. Wright, 587 F.3d 983, 985 n.2 (9th Cir. 2009)

(per curiam).

      AFFIRMED.

          **
             The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). Accordingly, the requests for
oral argument are denied.
