What is the test for appeal against a federal judge's order requiring a party to obtain a writ of appeal?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Douglas v. U.S. Dist. Court for Cent. Dist. Cal., 495 F.3d 1062 (9th Cir. 2007):

1. "The party seeking the writ has no other adequate means, such as a direct appeal, to attain the relief he or she desires."

2. "The petitioner will be damaged or prejudiced in a way not correctable on appeal."

[495 F.3d 1066]

3. "The district court's order is clearly erroneous as a matter of law."

4. "The district court's order is an oft-repeated error, or manifests a persistent disregard of the federal rules."

5. "The district court's order raises new and important problems, or issues of law of first impression."

Bauman v. U.S. Dist. Court, 557 F.2d 650, 654-55 (9th Cir.1977).
