IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MELVIN DE VAN DANIEL,

Plaintiff, No. 2:08-cv-0682 WBS JFM (PS) 

vs.

B. PADILLA, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff proceeds in this action on an amended complaint filed June 6, 2008. On

October 20, 2009, plaintiff filed a motion to amend, which was denied by the undersigned on

November 9, 2009 for failure to file a copy of his amended complaint. On November 18, 2009,

plaintiff filed an amended complaint but did not file a motion to amend.

Once an answer has been filed, a party may amend a pleading only by leave of

court or by written consent of the adverse party. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a). The procedure for

amending a complaint are set forth in Local Rule 137(c). An answer was filed on January 23,

2009. Plaintiff has filed neither a motion to amend nor a stipulation to amend the complaint

signed by all parties. Plaintiff’s amended complaint will therefore be stricken, and this action

will proceed on the amended complaint filed June 6, 2008.
