Does a district court need to consider the effect of a local rule that would result in the dismissal of a case?

The following excerpt is from Sandoval v. Cnty. of San Diego, 985 F.3d 657 (9th Cir. 2021):
7 We therefore have no occasion to address whether applying this local rule rigidly would amount to an abuse of discretion where, as here, it would effectively prevent a plaintiff from satisfying her burden on summary judgment. See Ghazali v. Moran , 46 F.3d 52, 5354 (9th Cir. 1995) (per curiam) (explaining the factors a district court must consider when applying a local rule would result in the dismissal of a case).
