What is the standard of review for a de novo grant of declaratory relief?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Gayle Mfg. Co., Inc. v. Federal Sav. and Loan Ins. Corp., 910 F.2d 574 (9th Cir. 1990):

The required litany of standards of review need not be long. We review de novo grants of declaratory relief, Guerra v. Sutton, 783 F.2d 1371, 1376 (9th Cir.1986), and interpretations of state law, Matter of McLinn, 739 F.2d 1395, 1397 (9th Cir.1984) (en banc).

Although we review a district court's computation of damages for clear error, we review the district court's selection of the correct legal standard for measuring damages de novo. Galindo v. Stoody Co., 793 F.2d 1502, 1516 (9th Cir.1986).
