UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JASON LOKERSON,

Plaintiff,

v.

C. PFEIFFER,

Defendant.

Case No. 1:23-cv-01513-HBK (PC)

ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF’S MOTION 

TO WITHDRAW PENDING MOTIONS

(Doc. No. 14)

ORDER DISREGARDING PLAINTIFF’S 

FIRST AMENDED COMPLAINT

(Doc. No. 10)

ORDER DENYING AS MOOT PLAINTIFF’S 

MOTIONS FOR LEAVE TO AMEND

(Doc. Nos. 11, 12)

Pending before the Court is Plaintiff’s pleading entitled “First Amended Complaint and 

Request to Withdrawl [sic] Pending Motions,” filed on December 11, 2023. (Doc. No. 14, 

“Motion”). Liberally construed, Plaintiff asks the Court to disregard his First Amended 

Complaint filed December 4, 2023 (Doc. No. 10) and his two Motions to Amend his Complaint 

(Doc. Nos. 11, 12) and to deem his lodged Second Amended Complaint (Doc. No. 13) the 

operative pleading in this action. (See Doc. No. 14). Plaintiff explains that he filed the prior 

pleading prior to receiving the Court’s November 28, 2023 Screening Order. (Id.). The Court 

will grant Plaintiff’s Motion.
