The following excerpt is from Ely Valley Mines, Inc. v. Hartford Acc. and Indem. Co., 644 F.2d 1310 (9th Cir. 1981):

The district court granted dismissal for lack of prosecution, which appellants contend was error. The standard on review is whether the district court abused its discretion. Von Poppenheim v. Portland Boxing & Wrestling Comm., 442 F.2d 1047 (9th Cir. 1971).
