Appellants appeal the district court’s denial of their request for preliminary
injunctive relief against appellee government officials. 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. The Lands Council v. McNair, 537 F.3d 981, 986 (9th Cir. 2008); see
Winter v. Natural Resources Defense Council, 129 S. Ct. 365, 374 (2008) (listing
factors for district court to consider); Sports Form, Inc., 686 F.2d 750, 752-53
(9th Cir. 1982) (explaining limited scope of review). We conclude the district
court did not abuse its discretion. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order
denying the preliminary injunction.
Appellants’ opposed motion to supplement the record is denied.
AFFIRMED.
