The following excerpt is from Hicks v. U.S. Post Office, 83 F.3d 427 (9th Cir. 1996):
Furthermore, the district court's finding that counsel had failed to show excusable neglect sufficient to warrant vacating its order of dismissal was not an abuse of discretion. See Barber v. Hawaii, 42 F.3d 1185, 1198 (9th Cir.1994).
