2 15-17182
Dist. No. 1J, Multnomah Cty., Or. v. ACandS, Inc., 5 F.3d 1255, 1262 (9th
Cir. 1993), and we affirm.
The district court did not abuse its discretion by denying the Konarskis’
motion under Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 59(e) and 60(b)(1) because the
Konarskis failed to demonstrate excusable neglect or any other ground for relief.
See ACandS, 5 F.3d at 1263 (setting forth grounds for reconsideration under Rules
59(e) and 60(b)); see also Ahanchian v. Xenon Pictures, Inc., 624 F.3d 1253, 1261
(9th Cir. 2010) (setting forth four-factor equitable test for determining whether a
party’s failure to meet a deadline constitutes “excusable neglect”).
Appellees’ request for oral argument (Docket Entry No. 17) is denied as
moot.
AFFIRMED.
