Civil No. 10cv1270 L (CAB)

ORDER DENYING WITHOUT

PREJUDICE AMENDED MOTION

TO DISMISS AND AMENDED

MOTION TO STRIKE [doc. nos. 8, 9] 

Defendants Portfolio Recovery Associates, Inc. and PRA Location Services LLC filed

amended motions to strike portions of the complaint and to dismiss the complaint. Plaintiff filed

an amended complaint on August 30, 2010. Because an amended complaint supersedes a prior

complaint as a pleading, when a plaintiff elects to file an amended complaint, a district court

may treat an existing motion to dismiss as moot. Forsyth v. Humana, Inc., 114 F.3d 1467, 1474

(9th Cir. 1997); Hal Roach Studios, Inc. v. Richard Feiner & Co., 896 F.2d 1542, 1546 (9th Cir.

1990). Accordingly, the Court DENIES AS MOOT and WITHOUT PREJUDICE

defendants’ amended motions to strike and to dismiss the complaint.

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

DATED: September 8, 2010
