The following excerpt is from Abate v. Walton, 77 F.3d 488 (9th Cir. 1995):
Abate argues that the district court abused its discretion by denying his request that certain witnesses appear at the evidentiary hearing. The district court's evidentiary rulings are reviewed for an abuse of discretion and errors will not result in reversal unless prejudice is shown. City of Long Beach v. Standard Oil of California, 46 F.3d 929, 936 (9th Cir.1995).
