CASE NO. 1:10-cv-180-LJO-MJS (PC)

ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF’S MOTION

FOR COURT ORDER [TO AMEND]

(Doc. 10)

PLAINTIFF MUST FILE AMENDED

COMPLAINT BY 8/15/2010

Plaintiff Pierre Rizzo (“Plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma

pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff has filed a Motion

for Court Order [Doc. 10] asking the Court for time to add defendants and information to

his previously filed complaint. The Court construes this Motion as a request for leave to

amend his complaint. 

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 15(a) provides that a party is free to amend a

pleading once so long as the other party has not served a responsive pleading. There is

no responsive pleading in this case. Accordingly, Plaintiff is entitled to amend his

complaint, and his Motion for Court Order [Doc. 10] is GRANTED. Plaintiff shall file an

amended complaint not later than August 15, 2010. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
