   SUMMARY ORDER

Appellant Jehan Zeb Mir, proceeding pro se, appeals from the district court’s judgment dismissing, his complaint against state officials involved in the revocation of his medical license as barred, in part, by absolute immunity and, in part, for failure to state a claim upon which relief may be granted. The district court additionally denied Mir’s request for sanctions against certain defendants and their attorneys pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11. We assume the parties’ familiarity with the underlying facts, the procedural history of the case, and the issues on appeal.

We review de novo a district court’s dismissal of a complaint pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6), construing the “complaint liberally, accepting all factual allegations in the complaint as true, and drawing all reasonable inferences in the plaintiffs favor.” Chambers v. Time Warner, Inc., 282 F.3d 147, 152 (2d Cir. 2002). Likewise, we review de novo the question whether absolute immunity applies. Giraldo v. Kessler, 694 F.3d 161, 165 (2d Cir. 2012). We review the denial of a motion for sanctions under Rule 11 for abuse of discretion. Perez v. Posse Comitatus, 373 F.3d 321, 326 (2d Cir. 2004).

Upon review, we conclude that the district court properly dismissed Mir’s claims and denied his request for sanctions. We affirm for substantially the same reasons stated by the district court in its thorough and well-reasoned March 27, 2015 decision.

We have considered all of Mir’s arguments and find them to be without merit. Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is hereby AFFIRMED.
