MEMORANDUM**

2
This preliminary injunction appeal comes to us for review under Ninth Circuit Rule 3-3.  We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a)(1), and we affirm.

3
Our inquiry is whether the district court abused its discretion by granting a preliminary injunction with asset freeze.  See Does 1-5 v. Chandler, 83 F.3d 1150, 1152 (9th Cir.1996);  see also FTC v. World Wide Factors, Ltd., 882 F.2d 344, 347 (9th Cir.1989).  The record before us shows that the district court did not rely upon an erroneous legal premise or abuse its discretion by concluding that appellee's showing of probable success on the merits was sufficient to warrant preliminary injunctive relief.  See FTC v. World Wide Factors, Ltd., 882 F.2d at 347.   The court's factual findings are not clearly erroneous.  See id.  Does 1-5 v. Chandler, 83 F.3d at 1152.

4
Accordingly, the district court order granting a preliminary injunction with asset freeze is AFFIRMED.

*
 The panel unanimously agrees that this case is appropriate for submission without oral argument pursuant to Fed.R.App.P. 34(a) and Ninth Cir.R. 34-4

 This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as provided by Ninth Cir.R. 36-3
