request for preliminary injunctive relief and from the denial of his motion for
reconsideration. 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, and we conclude the district court did not abuse its discretion. Winter v.
Natural Res. Def. Council Inc., 555 U.S. 7, 24 (2008) (listing factors for district
court to consider); Sports Form, Inc. v. United Press Int’l, 686 F.2d 750, 752-53
(9th Cir. 1982) (explaining limited scope of review).
The district court did not abuse its discretion by denying Mir's motion for
reconsideration because Mir failed to establish grounds for such relief. See Sch.
Dist. No. 1J, Multnomah Cnty., Or. v. ACandS, Inc., 5 F.3d 1255, 1262–63 (9th
Cir. 1993) (setting forth the standard of review and grounds for reconsideration).
AFFIRMED.
