No. C 14-2170 RMW (PR)

ORDER DENYING MOTION TO

SUSPEND DATE; DIRECTING

PLAINTIFF TO FILE AN

AMENDED COMPLAINT

(Docket Nos. 6, 11.)

Plaintiff, a California state civilly committed detainee proceeding pro se, filed a civil

rights complaint pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On November 12, 2014, the court screened

plaintiff’s complaint and dismissed it with leave to amend. On December 11, 2014, plaintiff

filed a motion to suspend the date for filing his amended complaint pending disposition of

plaintiff’s interlocutory appeal. On January 14, 2015, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals

dismissed the appeal for want of jurisdiction. 

Accordingly, plaintiff’s motion is DENIED as moot. Plaintiff is directed to file an

amended complaint within twenty-eight days of the filing date of this order.1

 The amended

complaint must include the caption and civil case number used in this order (C 14-2170 RMW

(PR)) and the words AMENDED COMPLAINT on the first page. The amended complaint must

indicate which specific, named defendant(s) was involved in each cause of action, what each

defendant did, what effect this had on plaintiff and what right plaintiff alleges was violated. 

Plaintiff may not incorporate material from the prior complaint by reference. If plaintiff files an

amended complaint, he must allege, in good faith, facts - not merely conclusions of law - that

demonstrate that he is entitled to relief under the applicable federal statutes. Failure to file an

amended complaint within thirty days and in accordance with this order will result in a

finding that further leave to amend would be futile and this action will be dismissed.

Plaintiff is advised that an amended complaint supersedes the original complaint. “[A] plaintiff

waives all causes of action alleged in the original complaint which are not alleged in the

amended complaint.” London v. Coopers & Lybrand, 644 F.2d 811, 814 (9th Cir. 1981). 

Defendants not named in an amended complaint are no longer defendants. See Ferdik v.

Bonzelet, 963 F.2d 1258, 1262 (9th Cir. 1992). 

Plaintiff has also requested a copy of his original complaint for his records. As a one

time courtesy, the Clerk shall provide plaintiff with a copy of his original complaint.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
