MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Haywood v. City of Pasadena, 935 F.2d 274 (9th Cir. 1991):

2 Having properly dismissed Haywood's state law claims, the district court did not abuse its discretion in modifying the pretrial order accordingly. See Jordan v. Clark, 847 F.2d 1368, 1376-77 n. 9 (9th Cir.1988) (modification of pre-trial order is reviewed for abuse of discretion).
