California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Chuang v. Chang, B257818 (Cal. App. 2015):
Plaintiffs fail to suggest how they would amend their first amended complaint to correct the defects discussed above. The burden of proving a reasonable possibility of amending the complaint to state a cause of action "is squarely on the plaintiff." (Blank v. Kirwan (1985) 39 Cal.3d 311, 318.) The trial court therefore did not abuse its discretion by sustaining the demurrer without leave to amend.
The judgment is affirmed. Defendants are awarded their costs on appeal.
