The following excerpt is from Price Simms Holdings LLC v. Candle3, LLC, No. 18-cv-1851 WBS KJN (E.D. Cal. 2018):
Here, plaintiffs allege in conclusory terms that all the alleged breaches "occurred after and/or were not discovered until after the parties entered into the Amendment." (Compl. 10.) However, plaintiffs allege no specific facts to support their allegation that the alleged breaches occurred after the parties signed the amendment or that plaintiffs did not know or suspect that their claims existed when they signed the amendment. Without some minimal explication of which alleged breaches occurred and when, the complaint is insufficient under the pleading standard set forth in Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678 (2009), to adequately plead a claim for breach of contract.1
