Text: 20 The district court's decision to decline jurisdiction over a declaratory judgment action will not be overturned absent a clear abuse of discretion. See ARW Exploration Corp. v. Aguirre, 947 F.2d 450, 453-54 (10th Cir.1991); see also Wilton v. Seven Falls Co., 515 U.S. 277, 289-90, 115 S.Ct. 2137, 132 L.Ed.2d 214 (1995). On review, this court should not reevaluate the district court's assessment of each of the Brillhart/Mhoon factors, but only resolve whether the court's assessment was so unsatisfactory as to constitute an abuse of discretion. See Mhoon, 31 F.3d at 983.
