Heading: The Fourth-Party Complaint Against Attorney Ziady

Text: The McCabes' final challenge is to the district court's orders granting attorney Ziady's motion to dismiss the McCabes' fourth-party complaint for negligent misrepresentation and denying the McCabes' motion for reconsideration of that order and for leave to amend to substitute a claim for detrimental reliance. We review the court's dismissal de novo, see S.B.T. Holdings, LLC v. Town of Westminster, 547 F.3d 28, 30, 33 (1st Cir.2008), and the denial of the motion for leave to amend for abuse of discretion, ACA Fin. Guar. Corp. v. Advest, Inc., 512 F.3d 46, 55-56 (1st Cir.2008).
