The following excerpt is from Schneider v. California Dept. of Corrections, 151 F.3d 1194 (9th Cir. 1998):
Our review in this case is even more searching than usual because the district court dismissed the prisoners' complaint without leave to amend. "[D]ismissal without leave to amend is improper unless it is clear, upon de novo review, that the complaint could not be saved by any amendment." Chang v. Chen, 80 F.3d 1293, 1296 (9th Cir.1996).
