What is the test for determining whether a complaint will survive a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Baird v. Becerra, No. 2:19-cv-00617-KJM-AC (E.D. Cal. 2020):

Twombly, 550 U.S. at 555). Determining whether a complaint will survive a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim is a "context-specific task that requires the reviewing court to draw on its judicial experience and common sense." Id. at 679. Ultimately, the inquiry focuses on the interplay between the factual allegations of the complaint and the dispositive issues of law in the action. See Hishon v. King & Spalding, 467 U.S. 69, 73 (1984).
