UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

TORIANO GERMAINE HUDSON,

Plaintiff,

v.

DIAZ, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 15-cv-00787-SI 

ORDER STRIKING PLEADING

Re: Dkt. No. 62

On April 19, 2016, the court determined that, liberally construed, the second amended 

complaint stated a cognizable excessive force claim against several Richmond Police Department 

officers but did not state a claim against the Richmond Police Department, and set a briefing 

schedule for motions for summary judgment. (Docket No. 57.) In an order filed June 2, 2016, the 

court reset the deadlines for the motions for summary judgment so that defendants’ motion for 

summary judgment is now due on September 9, 2016. (Docket No. 61.) Thereafter, plaintiff filed 

a “complaint for damages” on June 29, 2016, which again describes the events alleged in earlier 

pleadings. (Docket No. 62.) Plaintiff did not move for leave to amend, nor did he explain why yet 

another amendment was necessary or should be permitted in this case which is now more than 

eighteen months old and in which plaintiff has repeatedly amended his pleading. The unpermitted 

and unnecessary complaint for damages filed on June 29, 2016 (Docket No. 62) is STRICKEN. 

The operative pleading remains the second amended complaint (Docket No. 47). The briefing 

schedule set in the order filed June 2, 2016 remains in place. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: July 29, 2016
