                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Central District of California
                    Otis D. Wright, II, District Judge, Presiding

                           Submitted September 23, 2014**

Before:        W. FLETCHER, RAWLINSON, and CHRISTEN, Circuit Judges.

       Kathleen J. Lyons appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment


          *
             This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
          **
             The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
dismissing her action alleging violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act

(“FDCPA”) and California law. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We

review de novo a district court’s dismissal for failure to state a claim, Cervantes v.

Countrywide Home Loans Inc., 656 F.3d 1034, 1040 (9th Cir. 2011), and we

affirm.

       The district court properly dismissed Lyons’s action because Lyons failed to

allege facts sufficient to state any cognizable claims for relief. See id. at 1040-41

(to avoid dismissal, “a complaint must contain sufficient factual matter, accepted

as true, to state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face[;] [a] complaint that

alleges only labels and conclusions or a formulaic recitation of the elements of the

cause of action will not survive dismissal” (citations and internal quotation marks

omitted)).

       The district court did not abuse its discretion by dismissing Lyons’s second

amended complaint without leave to amend after providing Lyons with an

opportunity to amend and concluding that further amendment would be futile. See

id. at 1041 (setting forth standard of review and explaining that leave to amend

should be given unless amendment would be futile); Chodos v. West Publ’g Co.,

292 F.3d 992, 1003 (9th Cir. 2002) (“[W]hen a district court has already granted a

plaintiff leave to amend, its discretion in deciding subsequent motions to amend is


                                             2                                      12-55762
particularly broad.” (citation and internal quotation marks omitted)).

      We reject Lyons’s contentions that the district court did not accept her

allegations as true and that she was denied a right to a jury trial.

      Appellees Wilmington Trust Company, CitiMortgage Inc., CR Title

Services, Inc., and Five Star Service Corporation’s motion for judicial notice, filed

on October 31, 2012, is denied as unnecessary.

      Appellees Timm Delaney and Prudential California Realty’s request for

joinder, set forth in their answering brief, is granted.

      AFFIRMED.
