Argued and Submitted November 18, 2011
San Francisco, California
Before: FARRIS, NOONAN, and BEA, Circuit Judges.
Carlos Pacheco appeals the district court’s order granting summary
judgment in favor of lender defendants on his claim for rescission under the Truth
in Lending Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1601 et seq. Reviewing the district court’s order de
novo, see Alpha Delta Chi-Delta Chapter v. Reed, 648 F.3d 790, 796 (9th Cir.
2011), we affirm.
Because the parties contest Pacheco’s ability to tender the loan proceeds, this
court’s holding in Yamamoto v. Bank of New York, 329 F.3d 1167 (9th Cir. 2003)
controls. Pacheco failed to produce any admissible evidence showing his ability to
tender. The district court properly sustained objections to statements in Philip
Lewis’s declaration. Thus, Pacheco did not meet his burden of showing the
existence of a triable issue of fact as to his ability to tender, a necessary element for
the remedy of rescission. Accordingly, the district court properly granted summary
judgment. See Yamamoto, 329 F.3d at 1173.
AFFIRMED.
