Defendants. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, seeks relief pursuant to 42 U.S.C. §

1983. Pending before the court is defendants’ motion for leave to file an amended answer,

defendant Chugg, newly named in the first amended complaint, notwithstanding the references to

this defendant made in the answer to the first amended complaint. Although defendants’ counsel

court’s electronic docket, rendering the motion defective on that ground alone. The motion is
