The following excerpt is from U.S. v. 33.5 Acres of Land, More or Less, Okanogan County, State of Wash., 789 F.2d 1396 (9th Cir. 1986):

The district court did not abuse its discretion in admitting knapweed evidence. "All facts which would influence a person of ordinary prudence, desiring to purchase the property, are admissible.... The modern trend favors a broad rule of admissibility, with discretion in the trial court." United States v. 100 Acres of Land, 468 F.2d 1261, 1267 (9th Cir.1972) (citations omitted), cert. denied, 414 U.S. 822, 94 S.Ct. 119, 38 L.Ed.2d 54 (1973).
