                    Appeal from the United States District Court

                    Michael M. Anello, District Judge, Presiding

Before:        RYMER, McKEOWN and PAEZ, Circuit Judges.

       Plaintiff-appellant Sherry Martin, dba Sherry Martin Photography appeals

the district court’s denial of her request for preliminary injunctive relief against

defendants-appellees in connection with appellant’s complaint against them for

copyright infringement. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a)(1), and

we affirm.

      We express no view on the merits of the complaint. Our sole inquiry is

whether the district court abused its discretion in denying preliminary injunctive

relief. The Lands Council v. McNair, 537 F.3d 981, 986 (9th Cir. 2008); see

Winter v. Natural Resources Defense Council, 129 S. Ct. 365, 374 (2008) (listing

factors for district court to consider); Sports Form, Inc., 686 F.2d 750, 752-53

(9th Cir. 1982) (explaining limited scope of review). We conclude the district

court did not abuse its discretion. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order

denying the preliminary injunction.

      We deny appellant’s request for oral argument and her motion to strike

portions of the answering brief.

      AFFIRMED.
