Docket

*1 Before: TASHIMA, SILVERMAN, and M. SMITH, Circuit Judges.

Francis Patrick Saitta appeals pro se from the district court’s summary judgment in his employment discrimination action alleging a disparate impact claim under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo, Johnson v. Henderson , *2 314 F.3d 409, 413 (9th Cir. 2002), and we affirm.

The district court properly granted summary judgment because Saitta failed to raise a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether defendant’s hiring practice produced an age-based disparate impact. See Stockwell v. City & County of San Francisco , 749 F.3d 1107, 1115 (9th Cir. 2014) (disparate impact claimant “must demonstrate a statistical disparity affecting members of the protected group”); see also Rose v. Wells Fargo & Co. , 902 F.2d 1417, 1421 (9th Cir. 1990) (“[P]laintiff must actually prove the discriminatory impact at issue, rather than merely an inference of discriminatory impact.”).

AFFIRMED.
