MEMORANDUM**

2

Rodney and Debra Quigley appeal pro se the district court's dismissal of their action against the South Mesa/Gilbert (Arizona) Justice Court and Justice of the Peace Donald Skousen. The Quigleys requested that the district court (1) rule that the Justice Court lacked jurisdiction over the Quigleys in the Justice Court action, (2) order the Justice Court to dismiss the Justice Court action against the Quigleys, and (3) award damages against Skousen and the Justice Court. The district court properly dismissed the action on the ground that district courts have no general appellate jurisdiction over state court proceedings. See Branson v. Nott, 62 F.3d 287, 291 (9th Cir.), cert. denied 116 S.Ct. 565 (1995).
