On January 22, 2010, defendant Select Comfort Retail

Corporation filed a motion in which it seeks to dismiss plaintiffs’

complaint. However, the parties jointly filed a Stipulation on

February 19, 2010, in which they agreed to allow plaintiffs to file a

first amended complaint. Plaintiffs filed a first amended complaint

that same day. Further, an order filed February 23, 2010, approved

the Stipulation; therefore, plaintiffs’ first amended complaint is now

the operative pleading. See Hal Roach Studios, Inc., v. Richard

Feiner and Co., Inc., 896 F.2d 1542, 1546 (9th Cir. 1989) (stating an

amended complaint supercedes the prior complaint). Since the pending
