question:
such equitable relief as may be appropriate. 29 U.S.C. § 2617(a)(1). A. Serious Health Condition Wells Fargo first argues that Vincent did not suffer a “serious health condition” as that term is defined by the FMLA. The parties agree that the Court should examine the regulations implementing the FMLA in order to determine whether Vincent suffered from a serious health condition. The parties disagree, however, as to whether the interim regulations or the final regulations, which became effective on April 6, 1995, should be used by the Court in arriving at its determination. The Court finds that the interim regulations which were in effect in January of 1995, the time of Vincent’s termination, govern this action. See Gay v. Gilman Paper Company, 125 F.3d 1432, 1434 n. 4 (11th Cir.1997) (<HOLDING>). Having resolved the dispute as to which set

question:
appeals from the district court’s order denying his Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 59 motion for reconsideration challenging the dismissal of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 2253, and we affirm. Henderson contends that the district abused its discretion by denying his motion, which we construe as a motion for relief from final judgment based on Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 60(b). See Straw v. Bowen, 866 F.2d 1167, 1171-72 (9th Cir.1989). The district court did not abuse its discretion when it denied Henderson’s motion because his almost two-year delay before filing the motion was not reasonable. See Fed.R.Civ.P. 60(c) (“A motion under Rule 60(b) must be made within a reasonable time.... ”); In re Hammer, 940 F.2d 524, 526 (9th Cir. 1991) (<HOLDING>). AFFIRMED. ** This disposition is not

answer:
(B)


question:
purchase of a personal automobile policy in Alabama from an Alabama insurance company had a substantial effect on interstate commerce. We note that the policy did not cover an automobile used for business purposes, other than farming or ranching, and that there is no evidence that Knight was engaged in either farming or ranching. We can see only one conceivable connection between this insurance transaction and interstate commerce — this intrastate transaction may be one of many such transactions that help fund Southern United’s business, thus enabling it to issue other policies that substantially affect interstate commerce. However, we decline to hold, based on the record before us, that such a tenuous connection would be sufficient to invoke the FAA. See United States v. Lopez, supra (<HOLDING>). Southern United had the burden of proving 
 Holding statements: (A) holding unconstitutional 18 usc  922q as beyond congresss commerce clause power (B) holding the limitations to congresss commerce clause authority recognized in lopez have no effect on the establishment of the interstate commerce element of the hobbs act (C) holding that morrison does not change the holding in mcallister and that  922g is a constitutional exercise of congresss commerce power (D) holding that 42 usc  13981 exceeds congresss authority under the commerce clause (E) recognizing that there is an outer limit to congresss power under the commerce clause
