brought under Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics,
403 U.S. 388 (1971). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We
review for an abuse of discretion. Molski v. Evergreen Dynasty Corp., 500 F.3d
1047, 1056-57 (9th Cir. 2007) (per curiam) (entry of a pre-filing order against a
vexatious litigant); In re Fillbach, 223 F.3d. 1089, 1090 (9th Cir. 2000) (dismissal
for failure to comply with a vexatious litigant order). We affirm.
The district court did not abuse its discretion by enforcing a pre-filing
review order that had been issued after giving Marks notice and an opportunity to
be heard, developing a record for review, making findings of previous harassment
and frivolous filings, and narrowly tailoring the remedy. See Molski, 500 F.3d at
1057 (explaining four factors district courts must examine before entering
pre-filing review orders).
The district court did not abuse its discretion by dismissing Marks’s action
because he failed to comply with the pre-filing review order, which required him to
submit an affidavit, signed under the penalty of perjury, verifying that he had not
previously litigated any issues raised in his proposed complaint.
Marks’s remaining contentions are unpersuasive.
AFFIRMED.
