MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Aref v. ARAB Republic of Egypt, 33 F.3d 58 (9th Cir. 1994):
2 The district court did not violate our mandate in Aref v. Arab Republic of Egypt, 892 F.2d 1045 (9th Cir.1989) (unpublished memorandum decision at 1989 WL 155430); ER 42-43. Nothing in our earlier opinion suggests that the district court could not dismiss this action, involving an amended complaint, on the pleadings alone.
