When a motion in limine is denied, does the court have discretion to deny a motion to amend the pleadings?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Branch Banking & Trust Co. v. D.M.S.I., LLC, No. 15-16933, No. 15-16934, No. 15-16935 (9th Cir. 2017):

Inc., 85 F.3d 1394, 1399 (9th Cir. 1996). However, when a ruling on a motion in limine is used to "preclude[] presentation of a defense," we review the ruling de novo. United States v. Ross, 206 F.3d 896, 898-99 (9th Cir. 2000).

Denial of a motion to amend pleadings is reviewed for an abuse of discretion. Johnson v. Mammoth Recreations, Inc., 975 F.2d 604, 607 (9th Cir. 1992).
