MEMORANDUM *

Substantial evidence supports the jury’s finding by special verdict that Mary J. Kling’s copyright claim against the defendants is barred by the Copyright Act’s three-year statute of limitations. See 17 U.S.C. § 507(b). Although damages caused by copyright infringements during the three years immediately preceding the filing of the action would be recoverable, Roley v. New World Pictures, Ltd., 19 F.3d 479, 481 (9th Cir. 1994), Kling presented no evidence to support an award of such damages. The district court, therefore, did not err by not instructing the jury that they could award damages to Kling for infringements during that period.

Because we conclude that Kling’s copyright claim is barred by the statute of limitations, we do not reach the remaining issues raised by her appeal.

*823With regard to the appellees’ cross-appeal, we conclude that the district court properly considered the non-exclusive Fogerty factors of frivolousness, motivation, objective unreasonableness, and compensation and deterrence, Fogerty v. Fantasy, Inc., 510 U.S. 517, 584 n. 19, 114 S.Ct. 1028, 127 L.Ed.2d 455 (1994), as weE as the plaintiffs degree of success, Jackson v. Axton, 25 F.3d 884, 890 (9th Cir. 1994), and did not abuse its discretion in denying the appeEees’ request for attorney fees under 17 U.S.C. § 505. See Smith v. Jackson, 84 F.3d 1213, 1221 (9th Cir. 1996).

AFFIRMED.
