Can a motion to amend for failure to comply with the local rule be denied?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Waters v. Weyerhaeuser Mortg. Co., 582 F.2d 503 (9th Cir. 1978):

It was clearly discretionary to deny the first motion to amend for failure to comply with the local rule and there was no abuse of discretion in denying the second motion. The reasons for the court's determination need not be stated if they are readily apparent. Komie v. Buehler Corp., 449 F.2d 644, 648 (9th Cir. 1971).
