United States v. Saladino
United States v. Saladino
Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
Joseph O. Saladino, individually and dba Freedom & Privacy Committee, appeals pro se from the district court’s summary judgment in favor of the United States in its action brought under 26 U.S.C. §§ 7402 and 7408 to enjoin Saladino and his organization from promoting, selling, and otherwise furthering, certain corporation-sole and claim-of-right tax avoidance plans. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review for abuse of discretion the grant of an injunction, United States v. Estate Pres. Servs., 202 F.3d 1093, 1098 (9th Cir. 2000), and review de novo the grant of summary judgment, Scott v. Pasadena Unified Sch. Dist., 306 F.3d 646, 652 (9th Cir. 2002). We affirm.
Accordingly, the district court did not abuse its discretion in granting injunctive relief to the United States. See United States v. Estate Pres. Servs., 202 F.3d at 1098 (concluding that an injunction should be granted if statutory requirements are met).
AFFIRMED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
