Heading: Conspiracy Claim Against Gay

Text: 12 To state a claim for conspiracy, the complaint must allege specific facts to support the existence of the conspiracy. Aldabe v. Aldabe, 616 F.2d 1089, 1092 (9th Cir.1980) (conclusory allegations of conspiracy are insufficient to state a claim under section 1983); Buckey, 968 F.2d at 794. Cantarella's complaint failed to allege specific facts to support the existence of a conspiracy between the officers or any other defendant and the alleged victim, Gay. Moreover, the district court informed Cantarella of this deficiency in his complaint, gave him the opportunity to amend, and warned him that failure to amend could result in the dismissal of Gay. Cantarella failed to amend his complaint, and the district court dismissed the action. We affirm. See Aldabe, 616 F.2d at 1092. 13 AFFIRMED in part, VACATED in part, and REMANDED.
