What is the test for a permanent injunction for abuse of power under the Fair Housing Act?
The following excerpt is from Silver Sage Partners v. City of Desert Hot Springs, 251 F.3d 814 (9th Cir. 2001):
We review a district court's decision concerning a permanent injunction for an abuse of discretion, but we review any determination that underlies the court's decision by the standard that applies to that decision. Dare v. California, 191 F.3d 1167, 1170 (9th Cir. 1999). Whether a plaintiff must show evidence that a defendant is reasonably likely to violate the Fair Housing Act in order to

obtain an injunction under 3613(c)(1) is a question of law. We review questions of law de novo. Torres-Lopez v. May, 111 F.3d 633, 638 (9th Cir. 1997).
