WILLIBY v. ALPHABET INC LLC (2019)

MEMORANDUM **

Harry J. Williby appeals pro se from the district court's order dismissing his action alleging federal and state law claims in connection with the operation of his YouTube channels. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review for an abuse of discretion a dismissal under Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b). Ferdik v. Bonzelet, 963 F.2d 1258, 1260 (9th Cir. 1992). We affirm.

The district court did not abuse its discretion by dismissing Williby's action because Williby failed to cure the deficiencies in his complaint, as ordered. See id. at 1260-63 (setting forth factors for determining whether a pro se action should be dismissed under Rule 41(b) and requiring a definite and firm conviction that the trial court committed a clear error of judgment in order to overturn such a dismissal).

Williby's contention that Judge Tigar should have recused himself is unpersuasive.

Williby's motion for judicial notice, or in the alternative, to supplement the record on appeal, is denied as unnecessary.

AFFIRMED.
