Jean Denny brought this pro se civil rights action against the Sandia Heights Homeowners Association, an individual member of that association, Bernalillo and Santa Fe Counties, and the New Mexico Court of Appeals alleging civil rights violations arising from a civil action brought against her in state court. In the state proceeding, the state district court found that Ms. Denny's motor home was in violation of restrictive covenants covering her subdivision and permanently enjoined her from parking the motor home on her property. The decision was affirmed by the state Court of Appeals. In this federal action, Ms. Denny asserts that the state suit against her was illegal on several grounds, as well as a denial of equal protection and due process.

Upon consent of the parties, the matter was heard by a magistrate judge, who dismissed the action for lack of subject matter jurisdiction under the Rooker-Feldman doctrine. We review de novo a dismissal for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. See U.S. West Inc. v. Tristani, 182 F.3d 1202, 1206 (10th Cir. 1999). We have carefully reviewed the record and the reasoning and authorities relied on by the magistrate judge. We affirm substantially on the grounds set forth in the memorandum opinion and order dismissing the action.

AFFIRMED.

ENTERED FOR THE COURT
