U.S. COURT OF APPEALS

§ 1291. We review de novo a dismissal for failure to state a claim under 28 U.S.C.
§ 1915A. Hamilton v. Brown, 630 F.3d 889, 892 (9th Cir. 2011). We affirm.
The district court properly dismissed Mabie’s excessive force claim because
Mabie failed to allege facts sufficient to show that defendant Hogan acted
“maliciously and sadistically to cause harm.” Hudson v. McMillian, 503 U.S. 1, 6-
7 (1992) (explaining elements of excessive force claim in prison context).
The district court properly dismissed Mabie’s free exercise claim because
Mabie failed to allege facts sufficient to show his practice of religion was
substantially burdened. See Jones v. Williams, 791 F.3d 1023, 1031 (9th Cir.
2015) (“A person asserting a free exercise claim must show that the government
action in question substantially burdens the person’s practice of [his] religion.”).
The district court properly dismissed Mabie’s retaliation claim because
Mabie failed to allege facts sufficient to show that defendant Hogan took adverse
action against him because of his engagement in protected conduct, or that any
such action by Hogan chilled Mabie’s exercise of his First Amendment rights. See
Rhodes v. Robinson, 408 F.3d 559, 567-68 (9th Cir. 2005) (explaining elements of
retaliation claim in prison context).
We do not consider Mabie’s arguments regarding defendant Perez because

-- 2 of 3 --

Mabie failed to replead claims against Perez in his second amended complaint.
See Chubb Custom Ins. Co. v. Space Sys./Loral, Inc., 710 F.3d 946, 973 n.14, 974
n.15 (9th Cir. 2013) (failure to replead claims after dismissal with leave to amend
amounts to waiver).
We do not consider matters not specifically and distinctly raised and argued
in the opening brief, or arguments and allegations raised for the first time on
appeal. See Padgett v. Wright, 587 F.3d 983, 985 n.2 (9th Cir. 2009). We do not
consider documents and facts not presented to the district court. See United States
v. Elias, 921 F.2d 870, 874 (9th Cir. 1990) (“Documents or facts not presented to
the district court are not part of the record on appeal.”).
AFFIRMED.
