UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

REGINA MARIE WAGNER, 

Plaintiff,

v. 

TERUMO MEDICAL CORPORATION, 

Defendant.

Case No.: 18cv1007-MMA (JLB)

ORDER DENYING AS MOOT 

DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO 

DISMISS PLAINTIFF’S 

COMPLAINT 

[Doc. No. 8]

On August 30, 2018, Defendant Terumo Medical Corporation (“Defendant”) filed 

a motion to dismiss Plaintiff Regina Marie Wagner’s (“Plaintiff”) Complaint. See Doc. 

No. 8. On September 17, 2018, Plaintiff filed a First Amended Complaint (“FAC”).1

 See 

Doc. No. 9. Accordingly, the complaint which Defendant seeks to dismiss is no longer 

the operative pleading in this action, as an amended complaint supersedes the original 

complaint. See Ramirez v. Cnty. of San Bernardino, 806 F.3d 1002, 1008 (9th Cir. 2015) 

(citing Forsyth v. Humana, Inc., 114 F.3d 1467, 1474 (9th Cir. 1997), overruled on other 

grounds by Lacey v. Maricopa Cnty., 693 F.3d 896, 927-28 (9th Cir. 2012)). As such, the 

                                               

1

 Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 15(a)(1), “[a] party may amend its pleading once 

as a matter of course within . . . 21 days after service of a motion under Rule 12(b) . . . .” Fed. R. Civ. P. 

15(a)(1). Because Plaintiff amended her pleading within 21 days after service of Defendant’s motion to 

dismiss pursuant to Rule 12(b)(2) and 12(b)(6), Plaintiff’s FAC is timely.
