Heading: Failure To Grant Leave To Replead Sua Sponte

Text: First, we address Williams's assertion that the district court erred by dismissing the complaint and closing the case without granting leave to replead sua sponte. We review a district court's denial of leave to amend for abuse of discretion. ATSI Commc'ns, Inc. v. Shaar Fund, Ltd., 493 F.3d 87, 108 (2d Cir.2007). We have described the contention that the District Court abused its discretion in not permitting an amendment that was never requested as frivolous. Horoshko v. Citibank, N.A., 373 F.3d 248, 249-50 (2d Cir.2004) (per curiam); accord Gallop v. Cheney, 642 F.3d 364, 369 (2d Cir.2011). Accordingly, we see no abuse of discretion in the district court's failure to grant leave to replead sua sponte.
