SUMMARY ORDER
Pro se plaintiff Betty O. Muka sued New York Supreme Court Justice James P. Murphy, who presided over a suit against Muka, and attorney James A. Meggesto, who represented her adversary in that suit, for violations of her civil rights. See 42 U.S.C. §§ 1981, 1983, 1985, 1986. She now appeals principally from the dismissal of her complaint,1 a ruling we review de *240novo, liberally construing the pro se complaint, accepting its factual allegations as true, and drawing all reasonable inferences in the plaintiffs favor. See Boykin v. Key-Corp, 521 F.3d 202, 214 (2d Cir.2008); Vietnam Ass’n for Victims of Agent Orange v. Dow Chem. Co., 517 F.3d 104, 115 (2d Cir.2008). In doing so, we assume the parties’ familiarity with the facts and the record of prior proceedings, which we reference only as necessary to explain our decision to affirm.
1. Claims Against Justice Murphy
a. Damages
Plaintiff submits that the district court erred in concluding that Justice Murphy was entitled to judicial immunity because he allegedly acted outside the scope of his jurisdiction. We disagree. To the extent plaintiff seeks money damages, it is well-established that judges enjoy absolute immunity “ ‘for their judicial acts, even when such acts are in excess of their jurisdiction, and are alleged to have been done maliciously or corruptly.’ ” Stump v. Sparkman, 435 U.S. 349, 355-56, 98 S.Ct. 1099, 55 L.Ed.2d 331 (1978) (quoting Bradley v. Fisher, 80 U.S.(13 Wall.) 335, 351, 20 L.Ed. 646 (1871)); accord Bliven v. Hunt, 579 F.3d 204, 209-10 (2d Cir.2009). In Tucker v. Outwater, we distinguished between a judge’s exercise of an “ ‘excess of jurisdiction,’ ” which is subject to immunity, and the “ ‘clear absence of all jurisdiction over the subject matter,”’ which is not. 118 F.3d 930, 933 (2d Cir.1997) (quoting Stump v. Sparkman, 435 U.S. at 356 n. 6, 98 S.Ct. 1099). When, as in this case, “ ‘jurisdiction over the subject-matter is invested by law in the judge, or in the court which he holds, the manner and extent in which the jurisdiction shall be exercised are generally as much questions for his determination as any other questions involved in the case.’ ” Tucker v. Outwater, 118 F.3d at 933-34 (emphasis omitted) (quoting Stump v. Sparkman, 435 U.S. at 356 n. 6, 98 S.Ct. 1099).
Plaintiff does not dispute that the New York Supreme Court is vested with general jurisdiction. See N.Y. Const, art. VI, § 7; Thrasher v. U.S. Liab. Ins. Co., 19 N.Y.2d 159, 166, 278 N.Y.S.2d 793, 225 N.E.2d 503 (1967) (“The Supreme Court is a court of general jurisdiction, and it is competent to entertain all causes of actions unless its jurisdiction has been specifically proscribed.”). Rather, she argues that the supreme court never obtained jurisdiction over the suit naming her as a defendant because, under the New York Civil Practice Law and Rules, “[a]n action is commenced by filing a summons and complaint,” Appellant’s Br. at 20 (quoting N.Y. C.P.L.R. § 304(a)), not by filing an order to show cause. Whatever its merits in light of statutory provisions for special proceedings to be commenced by filing, inter alia, an order to show cause, see N.Y. C.P.L.R. § § 304(a), 402, 403(d), this *241argument nevertheless concerns “precisely the kind of ‘procedural errors,’ ... that do not deprive a judge of subject matter jurisdiction — or judicial immunity.” Tucker v. Outwater, 118 F.3d at 936 (quoting Stump v. Sparkman, 435 U.S. at 359, 98 S.Ct. 1099). Accordingly, the district court correctly dismissed Muka’s claim for damages against Justice Murphy.
b. Injunctive Relief
While absolute judicial immunity does not extend to suits for prospective injunctive relief, see Shmueli v. City of New York, 424 F.3d 231, 239 (2d Cir.2005), plaintiffs claims are nevertheless barred by the Rooker-Feldman doctrine, which deprives federal courts of jurisdiction over “cases brought by state-court losers complaining of injuries caused by state-court judgments rendered before the district court proceedings commenced and inviting district court review and rejection of those judgments.” Exxon Mobil Corp. v. Saudi Basic Indus. Corp., 544 U.S. 280, 284, 125 S.Ct. 1517, 161 L.Ed.2d 454 (2005). Plaintiffs claim also fails on the merits because 42 U.S.C. § 1983 expressly provides that “in any action brought against a judicial officer for an act or omission taken in such officer’s judicial capacity, injunctive relief shall not be granted unless a declaratory decree was violated or declaratory relief was unavailable,” and plaintiff has made no such allegation here.
2. Claim Against Meggesto
Plaintiff submits that the district court erred in dismissing the conspiracy claim against Meggesto sua sponte on a ground Meggesto did not argue, despite the court’s acknowledgment that Meggesto’s arguments were irrelevant. This point merits little discussion. A district court’s ability sua sponte to dismiss a complaint that lacks a basis in law or fact is well-established. See Fitzgerald v. First E. Seventh Street Tenants Corp., 221 F.3d 362, 364 (2d Cir.2000). While we construe the pro se complaint liberally, see Boykin v. KeyCorp, 521 F.3d at 214, plaintiffs vague and conclusory allegations plainly fail to state a civil rights claim with a basis in fact under 42 U.S.C. §§ 1981, 1983, or 1985. See Ashcroft v. Iqbal, — U.S. ---, ---, 129 S.Ct. 1937, 1949-50, 173 L.Ed.2d 868 (2009) (requiring plaintiffs to “plead[] factual content that allows the court to draw the reasonable inference that the defendant is liable for the misconduct alleged”); see also Brown v. City of Oneonta, 221 F.3d 329, 339 (2d Cir.2000); Gyadu v. Hartford Ins. Co., 197 F.3d 590, 591 (2d Cir.1999); Spear v. Town of W. Hartford, 954 F.2d 63, 68 (2d Cir.1992). Accordingly, we conclude that the district court properly dismissed plaintiffs claim against Meggesto.
We have considered plaintiffs other arguments on appeal and conclude that they are without merit. Accordingly, we AFFIRM the judgment of the district court.
