R. Civ. P. 13 12(h)(3), based on the Rooker-Feldman doctrine. We assume 14 the parties’ familiarity with the underlying facts, the 15 procedural history of the case, and the issues on appeal. 16 17 Upon such review, we conclude that the Shresthas’ 18 appeal is without merit substantially for the reasons 19 articulated by the district court in its well-reasoned 20 order. Shrestha v. Lelin, No. 11-cv-4851 (S.D.N.Y. Oct. 24, 21 2011). We have considered all of the Shresthas’ remaining 22 arguments and find them to be without merit. 23 24 For the foregoing reasons, the judgment of the district 25 court is hereby AFFIRMED. 26 27 FOR THE COURT: 28 Catherine O’Hagan Wolfe, Clerk 29 2
