MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Davis v. Folsom Cordova Unified Sch. Dist., No. 2:15-cv-1714-GEB-KJN PS (E.D. Cal. 2015):
Ordinarily, the court liberally grants a pro se litigant leave to amend. However, granting leave to amend is not warranted where further amendment would be futile. See Cahill v. Liberty Mut. Ins. Co., 80 F.3d 336, 339 (9th Cir. 1996).
