TIMBERS, Circuit Judge:
This is an appeal from a summary judgment entered in the Southern District of New York, John F. Keenan, District Judge, in favor of John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company (Hancock).
Amerford International Corp. (Amerford) contends that the court erred in strictly construing contractual language to award summary judgment to Hancock. On appeal, Am-erford requests a remand for entry of an order granting its own cross-motion for summary judgment. It also seeks reversal of the order denying Amerford’s motion for leave to amend its answer.
We affirm.
