10-35312 2
court’s judgment dismissing their action under the Truth in Lending Act and state
law. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo. King v.
California, 784 F.2d 910, 912 (9th Cir. 1986). We affirm.
The district court properly dismissed Appellants’ state law claims because
they failed to plead facts sufficient to state a cause of action for fraud or intentional
infliction of emotional distress. See Stiley v. Block, 925 P.2d 194, 204 (Wash.
1996) (listing elements necessary for actionable fraud); Birklid v. Boeing Co., 904
P.2d 278, 286 (Wash. 1995) (listing elements necessary for an intentional infliction
of emotional distress claim).
We do not consider contentions not raised in the opening brief, or regarding
issues not raised below. See Smith v. Marsh, 194 F.3d 1045, 1052 (9th Cir. 1999).
Appellants’ remaining contentions are unpersuasive.
Appellants’ motions to supplement the record are denied.
AFFIRMED.
