*1 Before: CANBY, TROTT, and GRABER, Circuit Judges.

Steven Wierzba appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing his action alleging various federal and state law foreclosure related claims. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a dismissal on the basis of res judicata. Manufactured Home Cmtys. Inc. v. City of San Jose , 420 *2 F.3d 1022, 1025 (9th Cir. 2005). We affirm.

The district court properly dismissed Wierzba’s action as barred by the doctrine of res judicata because his claims were raised, or could have been raised, in his two prior federal court actions and the state court unlawful detainer action that resulted in final judgments. See Stewart v. U.S. Bancorp , 297 F.3d 953, 956 (9th Cir. 2002) (factors for applying federal rule for res judicata); Vella v. Hudgins , 572 P.2d 28, 30 (Cal. 1977) (unlawful detainer judgments have claim preclusive effect on subsequent actions challenging validity of title); see also Cal. Civ. Proc. Code § 1161a(b)(3) (unlawful detainer action permitted where property was acquired through a sale made in accordance with Section 2924 of the California Civil Code).

We reject as meritless Wierzba’s contentions regarding defendant Quality Loan Service Corporation’s alleged default.

We do not consider arguments not specifically and distinctly raised and argued in the opening brief. See Padgett v. Wright , 587 F.3d 983, 985 n.2 (9th Cir. 2009).

AFFIRMED.
