UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KYLE RAY,

Plaintiff,

v.

UTILITY TREE SERVICE, INC., 

and DOES 1 through 100, 

inclusive,

Defendants.

No. 2:15-cv-00182-GEB-DAD

ORDER DENYING DEFENDANT’S MOTION 

TO DISMISS AS MOOT

Defendant filed a motion to dismiss Plaintiff’s 

Complaint under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) on 

January 29, 2015. (ECF No. 5.) However, Plaintiff filed a timely 

First Amended Complaint on February 16, 2015, (ECF No. 8), which 

is now the operative pleading. See Hal Roach Studios, Inc. v. 

Richard Feiner & Co., Inc., 896 F.2d 1542, 1546 (9th Cir. 1989) 

(stating “an amended pleading supersedes the original.”). Since 

the referenced dismissal motion does not address the operative 

pleading, it is denied as moot.

Dated: February 18, 2015
