Appellants. Edward Hutchinson Robbins, Jr., Derek P.

Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Jimmy Danh and Luong Thi Ly appeal the district
court’s orders granting summary judgment in favor of the Federal
National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and awarding Fannie
Mae judgment in the amount of $33,726.16, plus court costs,
post-judgment interest, and attorneys’ fees and expenses. On
appeal, Appellants assert that Fannie Mae’s claims were barred
by res judicata and the Rooker-Feldman * doctrine. Because Fannie
Mae’s counter-claims are distinct from those raised in the
parties’ prior state action and were not litigated in any prior
proceeding, we affirm the district court’s judgment. We
dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal
contentions are adequately presented in the materials before
this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED

D.C. Court of Appeals v. Feldman, 460 U.S. 462 (1983);
Rooker v. Fid. Trust Co., 263 U.S. 413 (1923).
