1Opinion of the Court
SCHROEDER, Circuit Judge.
The United States Trustee for the District of Arizona in 1994 removed appellant Richard Brooks from the panel of Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Trustees for the District. He filed a complaint against the United States, the U.S. Trustee, and other federal employees. The district court dismissed the complaint pursuant to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) for failure to state a claim on which relief could be granted. In this appeal, Brooks contends he has stated a claim that his removal violated his due process rights. We affirm the district court’s dismissal.
