IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA SEAN BAPTISTE NEAL, Plaintiff, vs. ROSEANNE CAMPBELL, et al., Defendants. / Plaintiff has filed a supplement to his complaint. However, Local Rule 15-220 requires that complaints be complete in themselves without reference to any prior pleading. This is because, as a general rule, an amended complaint supersedes a previous complaint. See Loux v. Rhay, 375 F.2d 55, 57 (9th Cir. 1967). Therefore, plaintiff's October 6, 2009 supplement to his complaint shall be placed in the court's file and disregarded.1 DATED: October 19, 2009. ORDER No. CIV S-08-0313 GEB KJM P
