   ORDER AND JUDGMENT

JOHN C. PORFILIO, Circuit Judge.

Pro se plaintiff Bret Landrith appeals the district court’s dismissal of his civil rights complaint (appeal No. 12-3302) and imposition of filing restrictions on him (appeal No. 12-3332). The parties are familiar with the facts, so we do not recite them here.

Appeal No. 12-3302

The district court’s dismissal of the First Amended Complaint is affirmed under the pleading principles set forth in Bell Atlantic Co. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 555-57, 127 S.Ct. 1955, 167 L.Ed.2d 929 (2007), and Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678-80, 129 S.Ct. 1937, 173 L.Ed.2d 868 (2009). The complaint’s allegations do not “contain sufficient factual matter, accepted as true, to ‘state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face,’ ” Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 678, 129 S.Ct. 1937 (quoting Twombly, 550 U.S. at 570, 127 S.Ct. 1955). Particularly, Landrith’s “bare assertion[s] of conspiracy will not suffice.” Twombly, 550 U.S. at 556, 127 S.Ct. 1955. “Rule 8 marks a notable and generous departure from the hyper-technical, code-pleading regime of a prior era, but it does not unlock the doors of discovery for a plaintiff armed with nothing more than conclusions.” Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 678-79, 129 S.Ct. 1937.

The district court’s denial of Landrith’s motion for leave to file a second amended complaint also is affirmed because amendment would have been futile. See Scott v. Hern, 216 F.3d 897, 906 (10th Cir.2000).

Appeal No. 12-3332

The injunction imposing filing restrictions is affirmed. It is well-established that a court has the inherent power “to regulate the activities of abusive litigants by imposing carefully tailored restrictions under the appropriate circumstances.” Tripati v. Beaman, 878 F.2d 351, 352 (10th Cir.1989) (per curiam) (quotation omitted). “[Ijnjunctions are proper where the litigant’s abusive and lengthy history is properly set forth.” Id. at 353. “[Tjhere must be some guidelines as to what plaintiff must do to obtain the court’s permission to file an action.” Id. at 354. And a litigant “is entitled to notice and an opportunity to oppose the court’s order before it is instituted.” Id. The district court’s injunction met each of these requirements.

The judgments of the district court are affirmed in both No. 12-3302 and No. 12-3332. 
      
       After examining the briefs and appellate record, this panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist the determination of this appeal. See Fed. R.App. P. 34(a)(2); 10th Cir. R. 34.1(G). The case is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument. This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. It may be cited, however, for its persuasive value consistent with Fed. R.App. P. 32.1 and 10th Cir. R. 32.1.
     
      
      . Various claims also are subject to dismissal on other grounds, including (1) lack of standing to pursue claims for third parties, see Wilderness Society v. Kane Cnty., Utah, 632 F.3d 1162, 1168, 1170-72 (10th Cir.2011) (en banc); (2) abstention under Younger v. Harris, 401 U.S. 37, 91 S.Ct. 746, 27 L.Ed.2d 669 (1971); (3) qualified immunity, see Stewart v. Beach, 701 F.3d 1322, 1329-30 (10th Cir.2012); (4) lack of proper service of process, see Fed.R.Civ.P. 4; and (5) lack of personal jurisdiction, see Int’l Shoe Co. v. Washington, 326 U.S. 310, 316, 66 S.Ct. 154, 90 L.Ed. 95 (1945). Res judicata (claim preclusion) may also apply. See Rhoten v. Dickson, 290 Kan. 92, 223 P.3d 786, 798 (2010) ("Both federal and Kansas courts have held a pending appeal does not suspend the finality of the lower court's judgment for claim preclusion purposes.”); but see State v. Roberts, 293 Kan. 29, 259 P.3d 691, 700 (2011) ("[Cjonsistent with the doctrine of res judicata, the order of dismissal would not be final until the opportunity for an appeal had expired or was exhausted; only then would the order have preclusive effect.”).
