IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JUNE EMILY SOMMA,

Plaintiff,

 v.

GREAT ORMOND STREET,

Defendant.

 /

No. C 02-05889 JSW

ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF’S

MOTION FOR LEAVE TO

AMEND COMPLAINT;

VACATING HEARING DATE

Having received Defendant Great Ormond Street Hospital’s Statement of Non-opposition to

Plaintiff’s Motion for Leave to Amend Complaint, currently scheduled to be heard on Friday, March

18, 2005, it is HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff’s Motion for Leave to Amend is GRANTED. It is

FURTHER ORDERED that the hearing on Plaintiff’s motion scheduled for March 18, 2005 at 9:00

a.m. is VACATED.

Defendant asserts in its Statement of Non-opposition that “Defendant’s pending motion to

dismiss will apply to this second amended complaint.” (Statement of Non-opposition, p. 2.) Because

the filing of an amended complaint supersedes the prior complaint as a pleading, any pending motions

to dismiss attacking the prior complaint are moot. See Schwarzer, et al., California Practice

Guide: Federal Civil Procedure Before Trial, 9: 262 (2004). If Defendant intends to challenge

Plaintiff’s second amended complaint, Defendant must file a properly noticed motion addressing the
