SUMMARY ORDER
Appellants appeal from the April 24, 2009 memorandum and order and the June 2, 2009 judgment of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (Crotty, J.), granting appellees’ motion to dismiss the amended complaint in its entirety and denying leave to further amend the complaint. We assume the parties’ familiarity with the underlying facts, the procedural history, and the issues presented for review.
Mumbai, Inc. was a venue located in Manhattan and owned by Braham Prasad. As described by appellants, Mumbai “operated as a cultural arts center” and served as a “popular nightclub.” According to appellants, Mumbai “catered to minorities.” The nightclub closed following the revocation of its liquor license by the New York State Liquor Authority. Appellee Michael Weinberger is a private person who lived in the vicinity of Mumbai. Appellants brought suit against the City of New York, individually named members of the New York City Police Department,1 Weinberger, and several other individually named private persons2 who lived in the neighborhood where Mumbai was located.
Appellants allege that the revocation of their liquor license, among other actions taken against them, was the result of a scheme involving appellees to drive them out of business, which was motivated by *165discrimination and animus. Appellants seek damages and injunctive relief pursuant to the First, Fourth and Fourteenth Amendments and under 42 U.S.C. §§ 1981,1983, and 1985.
Before this Court, appellants maintain that the district court abused its discretion in denying them leave to further amend their complaint. We review the “denial of a motion for leave to amend for an abuse of discretion.” Dougherty v. Town of N. Hempstead Bd. of Zoning Appeals, 282 F.3d 83, 87 (2d Cir.2002). Here, appellants were afforded the opportunity to amend their complaint once. Fed.R.Civ.P. 15(a)(1). We have held that “[i]t would be a mistake ... to construe” this Circuit’s precedent “as establishing a broad rule to the effect that, in the case of a counseled plaintiff, abuse of discretion will be found and the case remanded whenever a district court fails to provide for repleading.” Porat v. Lincoln Towers Cmty. Ass’n, 464 F.3d 274, 276 (2d Cir. 2006) (per curiam). Appellants did not demonstrate that any amendment would cure the defects in their pleading and we find no abuse of discretion in the district court’s decision. See In re Tamoxifen Citrate Antitrust Litig., 466 F.3d 187, 220 (2d Cir.2006).
We review de novo the district court’s dismissal of appellants’ complaint pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6). E.g., Allaire Corp. v. Okumus, 433 F.3d 248, 249 (2d Cir.2006). To survive a motion to dismiss, a complaint must “state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face.” Ashcroft v. Iqbal, — U.S.—, 129 S.Ct. 1937, 1949, 173 L.Ed.2d 868 (2009) (internal quotation marks omitted). “Threadbare recitals of the elements of a cause of action, supported by mere eonclu-sory statements, do not suffice.” Id.
For substantially the reasons stated by the district court, appellants’ claims were properly dismissed. Appellants failed to make out a cause of action for malicious prosecution. See Washington v. County of Rockland, 373 F.3d 310, 316 (2d Cir.2004). Appellants’ claim that they were subjected to malicious abuse of process must also fail. “[Sjection 1983 liability ... may not be predicated on a claim of malicious abuse of ... civil process.” Green v. Mattingly, 585 F.3d 97, 104 (2d Cir.2009) (internal quotation marks omitted). With respect to appellee Weinberger, his conduct cannot be said to be “fairly attributable to the state.” Tancredi v. Met. Life Ins. Co., 316 F.3d 308, 312 (2d Cir.2003).
Appellants’ claim that their rights under the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment were violated was properly dismissed. Appellants’ “conclusory allegation[s] of discrimination ... without evidentiary support” cannot survive a motion to dismiss. Rivera-Powell v. N.Y. City Bd. of Elections, 470 F.3d 458, 470 (2d Cir.2006) (internal quotation marks omitted). Similarly, appellants’ allegation of a conspiracy was properly dismissed as “unsupported, speculative, and conclusory.” Boddie v. Schnieder, 105 F.3d 857, 862 (2d Cir.1997) (internal quotation marks omitted).
We have considered all of appellants’ remaining arguments and find them to be without merit. Therefore, for the foregoing reasons, the judgment of the district court is hereby AFFIRMED.
