Heading: Appellants Motion to Strike

Text: 79 A final matter to consider is appellants' claim that the district judge erred in refusing to strike certain affidavits for failing to comply with Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(e) and in refusing to award appellants attorney fees under Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(g) for appellants' defense to arguments made by Cyclops that relate to other documents that were, in fact, stricken. Our review of the district court's decisions under Rule 56 is limited to a search for an abuse of discretion. Since we find that the court was well within its discretion in denying appellants' motion below, the judgment of the district court on this issue is affirmed. 80 We therefore VACATE the judgment of the district court and DISMISS appellants' claims relating to the collective bargaining agreement. In all other respects, the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED. No costs, neither party having fully prevailed. 81
