Does a pro se action seeking leave to amend a pleading with intent to amend the pleading?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Ray v. Stracener, No. 2:19-cv-55-MCE-KJN PS (E.D. Cal. 2019):
Although the court ordinarily liberally provides litigants, especially pro se litigants, with an opportunity to amend if pleading deficiencies can be cured, the nature of plaintiffs' claims here suggests that granting leave to amend would be futile. See Cahill v. Liberty Mut. Ins. Co., 80 F.3d 336, 339 (9th Cir. 1996).
