The Eleventh Circuit has found that a district court should not
dismiss a complaint filed by a non-prisoner for failure to state a claim
under the in forma pauperis statute without allowing leave to amend when
required by Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a). See Troville v. Venz, 303 F.3d 1256,
1260 (11th Cir. 2002) (per curiam). " [HIowever, a district court may
properly deny leave to amend the complaint under Rule 15(a) when such
amendment would be futile." Hall v. United Ins. Co. of America, 367 F.3d
1255, 1262 (11th Cir. 2004) (citing Foman v. Davis, 371 U.S. 178, 182
(1962)). Given the nature of Plaintiff's claims against the named
Defendants, this Court is convinced that any amendment would be futile.
