 Annotate this Case
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit - 104 F.3d 365 (9th Cir. 1996) Submitted Dec. 16, 1996. *Decided Dec. 20, 1996

Before: SNEED, TROTT, and THOMAS, Circuit Judges.

MEMORANDUM** 

Ronald Dale Birdwell and Linda Rene Horgos (the "plaintiffs") appeal pro se the district court's summary judgment for the defendants in the plaintiffs' action under Ariz Rev.Stat. § 13-2314.04 seeking damages for harm allegedly caused by the defendants' racketeering activity. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo, Kruso v. International Tel. & Tel. Corp., 872 F.2d 1416, 1421 (9th Cir. 1989), and affirm.

Here, the district court granted summary judgment for the defendants as a matter of law because the plaintiffs failed to show that the defendants engaged in racketeering activity for financial gain as required by statute. We agree.

AFFIRMED.
