Kpmg LLP v. Kurt Kanam
Opinion
MEMORANDUM ***
Appellants Kurt Kanam and Orbie Mullins filed their interlocutory appeal challenging the district court’s order granting KPMG a preliminary injunction. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a)(1), and we affirm.
Although Kanam and Mullins received notice and service of KPMG’s motion for a preliminary injunction, they failed to oppose KPMG’s motion before the district court. Neither Kanam nor Mullins filed an opposition brief or appeared at the district court’s hearing on the motion for a preliminary injunction. Instead, they raised their objections to the preliminary injunction for the first time on appeal. Under our case law, failure to raise an issue before the district court waives consideration of that issue on appeal. K.W. ex rel. D.W. v. Armstrong, 789 F.3d 962, 974 (9th Cir. 2015). Accordingly, the district court’s order granting preliminary injunctive relief is
AFFIRMED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
