MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Lujan v. Garcia, 734 F.3d 917 (9th Cir. 2013):
We review the district court's remedy for abuse of discretion. Chioino, 581 F.3d at 1184. In general, a district court abuses its discretion when it makes an error of law, when it rests its decision on clearly erroneous findings of fact, or when we are left with a definite and firm conviction that the district court committed a clear error of judgment. United States v. Ressam, 679 F.3d 1069, 1086 (9th Cir.2012) (en banc) (internal quotations and alteration omitted).
