UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MICHAEL L. FOSTER,

Plaintiff,

v.

M.D. GODWIN UGWUEZE, 

Defendant.

 /

CASE NO. 1:13-cv-0659-LJO-MJS (PC)

ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF’S MOTION TO

AMEND AS MOOT

(ECF No. 11)

Plaintiff Michael L. Foster (“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 here moves to amend his Complaint because he has found an additional

party to name as a defendant in the action. (ECF No. 11.) However, the Court previously

dismissed Plaintiff’s Complaint for failure to state a claim and gave him leave to amend. 

(ECF No. 9.) Plaintiff has since filed a First Amended Complaint that names the new party

as a defendant in this action. (ECF No. 10. 

Accordingly, Plaintiff’s motion to amend is DENIED as moot.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
