MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from O'Bannon ex rel. Situated v. Nat'l Collegiate Athletic Ass'n, No. 14-16601, No. 14-17068 (9th Cir. 2015):

We review the district court's findings of fact after the bench trial for clear error and review the district court's conclusions of law de novo. FTC v. BurnLounge, Inc., 753 F.3d 878, 883 (9th Cir. 2014). Our clear-error review of the district court's findings of fact is "deferential"; "we will accept the district court's findings of fact unless we are left with the definite and firm conviction that a mistake has been committed." Id. (alteration and internal quotation marks omitted).
