The following excerpt is from Diamontiney v. McCarthy, 889 F.2d 1094 (9th Cir. 1989):
Diamontiney contends that the district court erred in dismissing his claim for failure to prosecute. The district court's order dismissing an action for failure to prosecute will be reversed only for an abuse of discretion. Link v. Wabash R.R., 370 U.S. 626, 633 (1962); Ash v. Cvetkov, 739 F.2d 493, 495 (9th Cir.1984), cert. denied, 470 U.S. 1007 (1985).
