   MEMORANDUM

Karl D. Chromy appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing his action seeking review of a final decision by the Commissioner of the Social Security Administration denying his objection to the appointment of Integrity Plus, RPP, as his representative payee responsible for oversight of his disability benefits. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a district court’s decision on mootness. Sample v. Johnson, 771 F.2d 1335, 1338 (9th Cir.1985). We affirm.

The district court properly dismissed this action because it was rendered moot when Integrity Plus resigned its appointment as Chromy’s payee. See id. (“A moot action is one where the issues are no longer live....”).

Chromy’s remaining contentions, including those concerning discovery and service of the motion to dismiss, are unavailing.

AFFIRMED.
