Docket

*2 Before: WALLACE, LEAVY, and FISHER, Circuit Judges.

Booker Theodore Wade, Jr., appeals pro se from the district court’s order denying Wade’s motion to compel arbitration and emergency stay motion. We have jurisdiction under 9 U.S.C. § 16(a)(1)(C) and 28 U.S.C. §§ 158(d), 1291. We review de novo the denial of a motion to compel arbitration. Cox v. Ocean View Hotel Corp. , 533 F.3d 1114, 1117 (9th Cir. 2008). We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a stay pending arbitration. Alascom, Inc. v. ITT North Elect. Co. , 727 F.2d. 1419, 1422 (9th Cir. 1984). We affirm.

The district court properly denied Wade’s motions to stay and to compel arbitration because the motions were unrelated to the order appealed from and presented for the first time on appeal. See Kaas Law v. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. , 799 F.3d 1290, 1293 (9th Cir. 2015) (appellate courts will not ordinarily hear issues raised for the first time on appeal).

Wade’s October 13, 2015 motion to disqualify counsel is denied. AFFIRMED.

without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
