The following excerpt is from Mitchell v. Office of Los Angeles County Superintendent of Schools, 805 F.2d 844 (9th Cir. 1986):
645 F.2d at 816. Even where it is possible that we might have weighed the evidence differently from that of the district court judge, and such is not the case here, we will not reverse the lower court's finding if its "account of the evidence is plausible in light of the record viewed in its entirety." Anderson v. Bessemer City, 105 S.Ct. at 1512.
