MEMORANDUM**

2

This is an appeal from the district court's preliminary injunction order in plaintiff corporation's trademark infringement action below. 9th Cir.R. 3-3. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a)(1), and we affirm.

3

Our sole inquiry is whether the district court abused its discretion in granting preliminary injunctive relief. See Gregorio T. v. Wilson, 59 F.3d 1002, 1004-05 (9th Cir.1995). The record before us fails to support appellants' assertions that the district court relied on erroneous legal premises or improperly balanced the plaintiff's likelihood of success on the merits with the possibility of irreparable harm. None of the court's factual findings appears clearly erroneous. Accordingly, the district court's preliminary injunction is AFFIRMED.1

The panel finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument. Fed.R.App.P. 34(a); 9th Cir.R. 34-4
