   MEMORANDUM

Sumit Ghosh (“Ghosh”), the sole shareholder of Plaintiff-Appellant Investments, USA, Inc. (“Investments”), challenges the district court’s dismissal of his complaint alleging that Uniti Bank (“Uniti”) violated both the Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (“RICO”) and 42 U.S.C. § 1982 by engaging in fraudulent lending practices that discriminated against Investments on the basis of Ghosh’s Indian-American origin.

Anosuya Datta (“Datta”), who controls both Plaintiff-Appellant Citywide Funding (“Citywide”) and Plaintiff-Appellant Sa-darang American International PAC, Inc. (“Sadarang”), challenges the district court’s grant of Uniti’s motion for summary judgment on her claim that Uniti violated 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Datta alleged that Uniti acted under color of state law by summoning Los Angeles Police and Fire Department personnel to events at property owned by Uniti and leased by Sadarang, and by influencing the LAFD’s subsequent decision to stop issuing permits for Sadar-ang’s use of the leased space as a banquet hall.

We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. Reviewing de novo the district court’s decisions, we affirm. See Skilstaf, Inc. v. CVS Caremark Corp., 669 F.3d 1005, 1014 (9th Cir.2012) (reviewing de novo a district court’s dismissal); Sullivan v. Dollar Tree Stores, Inc., 623 F.3d 770, 776 (9th Cir.2010) (reviewing de novo questions of law decided on summary judgment).

We first address Ghosh’s claims. A civil RICO plaintiff must allege a pattern of racketeering activity in order to state a claim under 18 U.S.C. § 1962. Sedima S.P.R.L. v. Imrex Co., Inc., 473 U.S. 479, 481-82, 105 S.Ct. 3275, 87 L.Ed.2d 346 (1985). Ghosh and Investments, however, alleged only that Uniti engaged in fraudulent and predatory lending practices — acts that are not among the statutorily enumerated examples of racketeering activity provided by 18 U.S.C. § 196100(B). See 18 U.S.C. § 1961(1)(B). Because the list of criminal acts in § 1961(1)(B) is exhaustive, the district court properly dismissed Ghosh’s and Investments’ complaint for failure to state a RICO claim upon which relief may be granted.

Furthermore, because Ghosh was not a party to the loan agreement between Uniti Bank and Investments, he lacked standing to pursue a personal claim under 42 U.S.C. § 1982. See Domino’s Pizza, Inc. v. McDonald, 546 U.S. 470, 479-80, 126 S.Ct. 1246, 163 L.Ed.2d 1069 (2006) (holding that the sole shareholder of a company lacked standing to state a personal § 1981 claim where the defendant allegedly breached its contract with the plaintiffs company because of racial animus toward the plaintiff). Investments’ complaint, meanwhile, failed to allege any facts that support its contention that Uniti treated Investments differently than similarly-situated mortgagees on account of Ghosh’s racial identity. See, e.g. Daniels v. Dillard’s, Inc., 373 F.3d 885, 887 (8th Cir.2004) (observing that “disparate impact discrimination under sections 1981 and 1982 will not lie”); see also Gen. Bldg. Contractors Ass’n, Inc. v. Penn., 458 U.S. 375, 391, 102 S.Ct. 3141, 73 L.Ed.2d 835 (1982) (noting that § 1981 can only be violated by purposeful discrimination); Denny v. Hutchinson Sales Corp., 649 F.2d 816, 822 (10th Cir.1981) (requiring a plaintiff to prove discriminatory purpose to state a § 1982 claim). For this reason, Investments did not establish a factual basis for its allegations of racial discrimination, and the district court appropriately dismissed its claim under 42 U.S.C. § 1982. See Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678, 681, 129 S.Ct. 1937, 173 L.Ed.2d 868 (2009).

Finally, Datta’s § 1983 claim required her to show that Uniti both deprived her of a right secured by the Constitution, and acted under color of state law. 42 U.S.C. § 1983; Collins v. Womancare, 878 F.2d 1145, 1147 (9th Cir.1989). Datta, however, failed to demonstrate “joint action” between Uniti representatives and members of the LAFD with respect to the LAFD’s decision to stop issuing event permits for the space Datta leased from Uniti. See, e.g., Collins, 878 F.2d at 1154 (9th Cir.1989) (applying the “joint action” test where plaintiff alleged that state action existed from government presence at a private enforcement action); Howerton v. Gabica, 708 F.2d 380, 383-84 (9th Cir.1983) (same). Because Datta did not demonstrate a substantial degree of cooperative action between Uniti employees and government officials, she failed to establish that Uniti acted under color of state law when it summoned city personnel to the premises, or when Datta was subsequently denied permits from the city. See Collins, 878 F.2d at 1154 (“Joint action therefore requires a substantial degree of cooperative action.”). For this reason, the district court’s decision on summary judgment was appropriate with respect to Datta’s claim under § 1983.

AFFIRMED.
