Falcon Stainless, Inc. v. Rino Companies, Inc.

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Falcon Stainless, Inc. appeals the district court’s denial of its request for pre *826 liminary injunctive relief against defendant-appellees Rino Companies, Inc., Performance Sales, Inc., Southsea Metal, Inc., John Novello and Herry Rieger. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a)(1), and we affirm.

We express no view on the merits of the complaint. Our sole inquiry is whether the district court abused its discretion in denying preliminary injunctive relief. The Lands Council v. McNair, 537 F.3d 981, 986 (9th Cir. 2008); see Winter v. Natural Resources Defense Council, — U.S.-, 129 S.Ct. 365, 374, 172 L.Ed.2d 249 (2008) (listing factors for district court to consider). We conclude the district court did not abuse its discretion. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order denying the preliminary injunction.

AFFIRMED.
