469 F.3d 1313 (2006)

FAMILY INC., a Washington corporation; Tae Jung Oh, Plaintiffs-Appellants, v. US CITIZENSHIP AND IMMIGRATION SERVICES, an agency of the United State Government, Defendant-Appellee.

United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

Filed December 4, 2006.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Michael E. Piston, Troy, MI, for the plaintiffs-appellants.

Christopher L. Pickrell, Assistant United States Attorney, Seattle, WA, for the defendant-appellee.

Before: GOODWIN and KOZINSKI, Circuit Judges, and SHADUR, Senior District Judge.


GOODWIN, Circuit Judge:

Tae Jung Oh appeals a summary judgment in favor of the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).1 In the district court, he sought reversal of a USCIS order denying his petition for a change of status. The question before this court is whether the USCIS decision was arbitrary, capricious, or an abuse of discretion. The district court held that it was not, and we agree.
