Text: On screening, the district court had to determine whether the amended complaint stated a claim on which relief could be granted. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii). In addition, the district court could address Eleventh Amendment immunity even if the issue had not been raised. See United States ex rel. Burlbaw v. Orenduff, 548 F.3d 931, 942 (10th Cir. 2008). Our review is de novo. See Arroyo v. Starks, 589 F.3d 1091, 1094 (10th Cir. 2009) (failure to state a valid claim); Chamber of Commerce of United States 2 v. Edmondson, 594 F.3d 742, 760 (10th Cir. 2010) (Eleventh Amendment immunity).
