• noting that a pro se 12 litigant is entitled to notice of the deficiencies in the 13 complaint and an opportunity to amend, unless the complaint’s 14 deficiencies could not be cured by amendment
• “Without the benefit of a statement of deficiencies, the pro se litigant will likely repeat previous errors.”
• leave to amend is liberally granted unless absolutely 18 clear deficiencies cannot be cured by amendment
• leave to amend is liberally granted unless 26 absolutely clear deficiencies cannot be cured by amendment
