Heading: Motions for Leave to Amend

Text: We review for abuse of discretion the district court’s denial of Mr. Fields’s motions to amend his complaint. See Grossman v. Novell, Inc., 120 F.3d 1112, 1126 (10th Cir. 1997). We discern no error by the court. The court characterized the proposed pleading as not really an amended complaint but an effort to show exhaustion. Mr. Fields does not dispute this characterization. Because Mr. Fields was given an additional opportunity to file such support, he suffered no prejudice. Of course, we could also reject the appeal of this ruling on the ground that -7- Mr. Fields has not provided an adequate record on appeal. See Taylor v. Phelan, 9 F.3d 882, 884 n.4 (10th Cir. 1993) (declining to address an issue when evidentiary materials necessary for proper consideration of the issue are not included in the record on appeal).
