MEMORANDUM**


2
This appeal from the denial of a motion for a preliminary injunction comes to us for review under Ninth Circuit Rule 3-3.  We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a)(1), and we affirm.


3
"A district court's order regarding preliminary injunctive relief is subject to limited review."   Does 1-5 v. Chandler, 83 F.3d 1150, 1152 (9th Cir.1996).  The denial of a preliminary injunction "should be upheld unless the court incorrectly applied the law, relied on clearly erroneous factual findings, or otherwise abused its discretion."   Id.


4
The record before us shows that the court did not rely on an erroneous legal premise, clearly erroneous factual findings, or abuse its discretion in concluding that, although appellant raised serious issues on the merits, appellant failed to show that the balance of hardships tipped decidedly in its favor.  See id.


5
Accordingly, the denial of a preliminary injunction is

AFFIRMED.1
