MEMORANDUM

The Chuck Olsen Co., Inc. (“Olsen”) appeals the district court’s order denying its motion for attorneys’ fees. F.P.D., Inc. (“F.P.D.”) cross-appeals the district court’s grant of Olsen’s motion for prejudgment interest. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291 , and we affirm the district court’s ruling in its entirety.

I.

We review the district court’s decision to deny attorneys’ fees and, specifically, its determination of which (if any) party was the “prevailing party,” for an abuse of discretion. Shaw v. City of Sacramento, 250 F.3d 1289, 1293-94 (9th Cir. 2001); United States ex rel. Palmer Constr. Inc. v. Cal State Elec. Inc., 940 F.2d 1260, 1261 (9th Cir. 1991).

The district court properly denied Olsen’s request for attorneys’ fees. Although Olsen was successful in obtaining a judgment against F.P.D., “prevailing party” status for purposes of an attorneys’ fee award under California Civil Code § 1717 is measured by “comparting] the relief awarded on the contract claim or claims with the parties’ demands on those same claims and their litigation objectives as disclosed by the pleadings ... and similar sources.” Hsu v. Abbara, 9 Cal.4th 863 , 39 Cal.Rptr.2d 824 , 891 P.2d 804, 813 (1995). Despite Olsen’s arguments to the contrary, the district court did not err in its “prevailing party” analysis by refusing to consider those invoices that were not part of Olsen’s claim, as articulated in the complaint, or by failing to consider the dismissal of F,P.D.’s tort counterclaims. See id., 39 Cal. Rptr.2d 824 , 891 P.2d at 811 ; see also Santisas v. Goodin, 17 Cal.4th 599 , 71 Cal.Rptr.2d 830 , 951 P.2d 399, 409 (1998) (“If an action asserts both contract and tort or other noncontract claims, section 1717 applies only to attorney fees incurred to litigate the contract claims.”). Here, Olsen succeeded in obtaining only a portion of its claimed damages. It was well within the district court’s discretion to decline Olsen prevailing party status in such circumstances. See Berkla v. Corel Corp., 302 F.3d 909, 922 (9th Cir. 2002).

II.

We review the district court’s decision to award prejudgment interest and the rate of interest for abuse of discretion. See Middle Mountain Land & Produce Inc. v. Sound Commodities Inc., 307 F.3d 1220, 1225-26 (9th Cir. 2002).

F.P.D. argues that the district court abused its discretion by granting Olsen’s request for prejudgment interest at the rate provided for on Olsen’s invoices— 1.5% per month (18% per year). F.P.D. specifically argues that (1) the district court’s reliance on the invoice was an insufficient basis to award prejudgment interest because there was no evidence presented that supported a “meeting of the minds” on the interest provision, and (2) the award of an 18% interest is so unreasonable that it constitutes an abuse of discretion. Those arguments, however, were never presented to the district court and are therefore waived. See Janes v. Wal-Mart Stores Inc., 279 F.3d 883, 887 (9th Cir. 2002).

AFFIRMED.
