California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Vassiliou v. Gen. Elec. Co., F063385 (Cal. App. 2013):
Moreover, in his opening brief, appellant does not demonstrate how the defects in his complaint could be cured by amendment. In fact, appellant's opening brief contains neither an intelligible legal argument nor any citations to authority as are required to support his contentions. (Kensington University v. Council for Private Postsecondary etc. Education (1997) 54 Cal.App.4th 27, 42-43.)
