The following excerpt is from French v. JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., CASE NO. 13-cv-969-BEN (BLM) (S.D. Cal. 2013):
To survive a Rule 12(b)(6) motion, a complaint "does not need detailed factual allegations," but the "[f]actual allegations must be enough to raise a right to relief above the speculative level." Twombly, 550 U.S. at 555. Although this court must accept as true well-pleaded factual allegations, a court is not "required to accept as true allegations that are merely conclusory, unwarranted deductions of fact, or unreasonable inferences." Sprewell v. Golden State Warriors, 266 F.3d 979, 988 (9th Cir. 2001).
