Is there any abuse of discretion in the discovery process?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Schroeder v. Kaleo-Lum, 931 F.2d 61 (9th Cir. 1991):

Schroeder filed numerous motions in the district court, including motions to compel discovery, to enlarge time, to defer disposition, for preliminary injunctive relief, and for oral argument on summary judgment. Schroeder contends that the district court erred in denying these motions.

We review discovery rulings for abuse of discretion. Klingele v. Eikenberry, 849 F.2d 409, 410 (9th Cir.1988).
