MEMORANDUM*

Appeal No. 97-15155

2

Elva Haugen and the Las Vegas Valley Church appeal pro se the district court's order striking documents Haugen filed after their action (CV-95-0879) had been dismissed, and the order striking Haugen's motion for reconsideration. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm. The district court properly struck the filings because the action had been dismissed and the case was closed.

AFFIRMED.1

Appeal No. 97-15306

3

Elva Haugen, Norris Haugen and the Las Vegas Valley Church appeal pro se the district court's order denying leave to file their complaint pursuant to a vexatious litigant order, and the order denying Haugen's motion for reconsideration. We review both orders for an abuse of discretion, see Moy v. United States, 906 F.2d 467, 469 (9th Cir.1990) (vexatious litigant order); School Dist. No. 1J v. ACandS, Inc., 5 F.3d 1255, 1262 (9th Cir.1993) (reconsideration), and we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court in its order entered on January 9, 1997.

AFFIRMED.2
