Opinion
MEMORANDUM **
Kabita Choudhuri appeals pro se from the district court’s order denying her motion for a preliminary injunction in her action concerning a mortgage loan. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a). We review for an abuse of discretion. Am. Hotel & Lodging Ass’n v. City of Los Angeles, 834 F.3d 958, 962 (9th Cir. 2016). We affirm.
The district court did not abuse its discretion by denying as moot Choudhuri’s motion for a preliminary injunction because Choudhuri failed to establish a likelihood of irreparable harm in light of Wells Fargo’s agreement to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of this case. See Winter v. Nat. Res. Def. Council, 555 U.S. 7, 20, 129 S.Ct. 365, 172 L.Ed.2d 249 (2008) (“A plaintiff seeking a preliminary injunction must establish ... that he is likely to suffer irreparable harm in the absence of preliminary relief.... ”).
The district court did not abuse its dis-. cretion by denying Choudhuri’s motion for reconsideration because Choudhuri failed to demonstrate any basis for reconsideration. Sc h. Dist. No. 1J, Multnomah Cty., Or. v. ACandS, Inc., 5 F.3d 1255, 1262-63 (9th Cir. 1993) (setting forth standard of review and grounds for reconsideration).
Contrary to Choudhuri’s contention, the district court was not required to hold a hearing and allow oral argument prior to ruling on the preliminary injunction motion. See N.D. Cal. Civ. L.R. 7-1(b) (“In the Judge’s discretion ... a motion may be determined without oral argument or by telephone conference call.”).
We reject as unsupported by the record Choudhuri’s contention that the district court failed to provide adequate notice that the preliminary injunction motion would be considered at the January 17, 2017 case management conference.
AFFIRMED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
