Does the district court abuse its discretion in denying plaintiffs leave to file a fourth amended complaint in order to reinstate an unjust enrichment claim?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Kaufman v. Sirius XM Radio, Inc., No. 11-0121-cv (2nd Cir. 2012):

The district court did not abuse its discretion in denying plaintiffs leave to file a fourth amended complaint in order to reinstate an unjust enrichment claim that would revive diversity jurisdiction. See McCarthy v. Dun & Bradstreet Corp., 482 F.3d 184, 200 (2d Cir. 2007) ("[I]t is within the sound discretion of the district court to grant or deny leave to amend" the complaint).
