The Honorable Sidney H. Stein, District Judge for the U.S. District
Court for the Southern District of New York, sitting by designation.
Companies. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. This Court
reviews a district court’s decision to exclude expert testimony for abuse of
discretion and a decision granting summary judgment de novo. See Primiano v.
Cook, 598 F.3d 558, 563 (9th Cir. 2010). We have considered all of plaintiff’s
arguments in favor of reversal and find them unavailing.1 The district court did not
abuse its discretion in excluding plaintiff’s experts and there is no genuine issue of
material fact that would preclude summary judgment on any of plaintiff’s
numerous claims for relief.
AFFIRMED.
