MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from McDowell v. Calderon, 173 F.3d 1186 (9th Cir. 1999):

The standard of review of a protective order is for an abuse of discretion. A district court abuses its discretion when it acts on the basis of an erroneous legal premise. Koon v. United States, 518 U.S. 81, 99, 116 S.Ct. 2035, 135 L.Ed.2d 392 (1996); Wharton v. Calderon, 127 F.3d 1201, 1205 n. 6 (9th Cir.1997).
