Lance v. Montana

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit · Decided July 21, 2006 · Fletcher, Hawkins, Thomas

189 F. App'x 676

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM **

This appeal from the district court’s order denying appellant’s motion for preliminary injunction comes to us for review under Ninth Circuit Rule 3-3. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a)(1), and we affirm.1

We express no view on the merits of the complaint. Our sole inquiry is whether the district court abused its discretion in *677denying preliminary injunctive relief. See Gregorio T. v. Wilson, 59 F.3d 1002, 1004-OS (9th Cir. 1995). The record before us shows that the court did not rely on an erroneous legal premise or abuse its discretion in concluding that appellant had failed to demonstrate a likelihood of success on the merits or the threat of imminent irreparable harm and in denying preliminary injunctive relief. See id. The court’s factual findings and application of legal standards are not clearly erroneous. See id. Accordingly, the court’s order denying the preliminary injunction is affirmed. All pending motions are denied as moot.

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.

. We decline to exercise jurisdiction at this time over the district court’s interlocutory order limiting appellant's filings in that court. See Yamamoto v. Omiya, 564 F.2d 1319 (9th Cir. 1977).
