• affirming the district court’s exclusion of evidence because its marginally probative value was substantially outweighed by the danger of unfair prejudice
• “Although Plaintiffs are correct in pointing out that the officers had their 3 guns drawn and did not announce their presence, these actions were entirely reasonable given that they were responding to a call that shots had been fired.”
• exclusion under Rule 403 is proper where “the marginal value of the evidence is 15 ‘substantially outweighed by the danger of confusion of the issues, or misleading the jury, 16 or by consideration of undue delay, and waste of time’” (cleaned up)
