1Opinion of the Court

WINTER, Circuit Judge:

The plaintiff, Cynthia McCahey, appeals from Judge Platt’s dismissal of her complaint for failure to state a claim, Fed.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6). McCahey seeks injunctive, declaratory, and monetary relief on the grounds that New York’s post-judgment remedies deprived her of property without due process. We affirm.
