• \[T]he harshness of a 22 dismissal [under Rule 41(b)] with prejudice is directly proportionate to the likelihood that 23 plaintiff would prevail if permitted to go forward to trial.\
• “Since harshness is a key consideration in the district judge’s exercise of discretion, it is appropriate that he consider the strength of a plaintiff’s case if such information is available to him before determining whether dismissal with prejudice is appropriate.”
