   MEMORANDUM

Patrick Cook appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging that various individuals and entities involved in his state court divorce action in Colorado violated his constitutional rights. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo. Noel v. Hall, 341 F.3d 1148, 1154 (9th Cir.2003) (dismissal based on Rooker-Feldman); Schwarzenegger v. Fred Martin Motor Co., 374 F.3d 797, 800 (9th Cir.2004) (dismissal based on lack of personal jurisdiction). We affirm.

The district court properly determined that Cook’s action against the judicial defendants is barred by the Rooker-Feldman doctrine because his complaint essentially challenges the propriety of the state court judgment. See Noel, 341 F.3d at 1158 (referring to Rooker v. Fidelity Trust Co., 263 U.S. 413, 44 S.Ct. 149, 68 L.Ed. 362 (1923) and Disk of Columbia Court of Appeals v. Feldman, 460 U.S. 462, 103 S.Ct. 1303, 75 L.Ed.2d 206 (1983)). Thus, the district court was required to “refuse to decide any issue raised in the suit that is ‘inextricably intertwined’ with an issue resolved by the state court.” Id. We reject Cook’s contention that defendants’ alleged commission of civil rights violations during his divorce proceeding takes his complaint out of the Rooker-Feldman ambit because that argument still rests on a claim of legal wrong by the state courts. See id. at 1164.

The district court also properly dismissed Cook’s ex-wife and her attorney because Cook failed to establish that the Nevada district court had personal jurisdiction over them. See Schwarzenegger, 374 F.3d at 801-02.

AFFIRMED.
