United States District Court

Re: Dkt. Nos. 13, 15

13
Before the Court is defendant’s “Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff’s Complaint,” filed May
14
5, 2017. On May 19, 2017, plaintiff filed a “First Amended Class and Collective Action
15
Complaint” (“FAC”).
16
A party may amend a pleading “once as a matter of course within . . . 21 days after
17
service of a responsive pleading or 21 days after service of a motion under Rule 12(b),
18
(e), or (f), whichever is earlier.” See Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a). “[A]n amended pleading
19
supersedes the original, the latter being treated thereafter as non-existent.” Bullen v. De
20
Bretteville, 239 F.2d 824, 833 (9th Cir. 1956), cert. denied, 353 U.S. 947 (1957).
21
In the instant case, plaintiff filed his FAC within 21 days after service of
22
defendant’s motion to dismiss, and, consequently, was entitled to amend. See Fed. R.
23
Civ. P. 15(a).
