have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291.
Because Gunn did not argue any discernable issues in his opening brief, we
affirm the district court. See Nevada Dept. of Corrections v. Greene, 648 F.3d
1014, 1020 (9th Cir. 2011) (pro se appellant’s issues were deemed waived by his
failure to support any of the issues with argument); Independent Towers of Wash.
v. Washington, 350 F.3d 925, 929 (9th Cir. 2003) (this court reviews only issues
argued specifically in a party’s opening brief).
AFFIRMED.
