                    Appeal from the United States District Court

request for preliminary injunctive relief and from the denial of his motion for

reconsideration. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a)(1), and we

affirm.

      We express no view on the merits of the complaint. Our sole inquiry is

whether the district court abused its discretion in denying preliminary injunctive

relief, and we conclude the district court did not abuse its discretion. Winter v.

Natural Res. Def. Council Inc., 555 U.S. 7, 24 (2008) (listing factors for district

court to consider); Sports Form, Inc. v. United Press Int’l, 686 F.2d 750, 752-53

(9th Cir. 1982) (explaining limited scope of review).

      The district court did not abuse its discretion by denying Mir's motion for

reconsideration because Mir failed to establish grounds for such relief. See Sch.

Dist. No. 1J, Multnomah Cnty., Or. v. ACandS, Inc., 5 F.3d 1255, 1262–63 (9th

Cir. 1993) (setting forth the standard of review and grounds for reconsideration).

      AFFIRMED.
