MEMORANDUM*

2

Diane Fazio appeals the district court's dismissal for failure to state a claim of her action against Time, Inc., alleging breach of contract, fraud, and violation of the California Unfair Business Practices Act ("UBPA"), Cal.Bus. & Prof.Code §§ 17200, 17203, 17500, and 17535, regarding a sweepstakes announcement that Fazio interpreted as a promise to pay her $1,666,675.00. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo the district court's dismissal pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6), see Cohen v. Stratosphere Corp., 115 F.3d 695, 700 (9th Cir.1997), and we affirm because there is "no set of facts ... that would entitle [Fazio] to relief," Parks Sch. of Bus., Inc. v. Symington, 51 F.3d 1480, 1484 (9th Cir.1995).1

Appellee's motion, filed February 13, 1998, is granted. The Clerk shall strike Fazio's "Citation to Supplemental Authority." See Fed.R.App.P. 28(j); Trans-Sterling. Inc. v. Bible, 604 F.2d 525, 528 (9th Cir.1986) (denying, as inappropriate, motion to enlarge the record on appeal with newspaper article).

AFFIRMED.

**

Because we unanimously find this case suitable for decision without oral argument, we deny Fazio's request for oral argument. See Fed.R.App.P. 34(a); 9th Cir.R. 34-4

The district court did not err by declining to hear oral argument. See Lake at Las Vegas Investors Group, Inc. v. Pacific Malibu Dev. Corp., 933 F.2d 724, 728 (9th Cir.1991)
