Is a failure to grant oral argument a reversible error in the absence of prejudice?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Arnold v. Hills, Renaut, Homen & McCormick, 36 F.3d 1102 (9th Cir. 1994):

"[F]ailure to grant oral argument is not reversible error in the absence of prejudice." Smith v. Retirement Fund Trust of Plumbing, Heating and Piping Indus., 857 F.2d 587, 592 (9th Cir.1988). The appellants do not argue that they were prejudiced in any way, and they failed to move for reconsideration on the issue. The district court did not abuse its discretion in light of the local rule and the lack of prejudice.
