IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO
Civil Action No. 12-cv-02995-PAB-MJW
PROFESSIONAL BULL RIDERS, INC., a Colorado corporation,
Plaintiff,
v.
EXCLUSIVE GENETICS, L.P., a Texas limited partnership,
Defendant.
MINUTE ORDER
Entered by Judge Philip A. Brimmer
This matter is before the Court on defendant’s Motion to Dismiss [Docket No.
13]. On December 20, 2012, plaintiff filed an Amended Complaint [Docket No. 14] as a
matter of course pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a)(1). Thus, the Amended Complaint
became the operative pleading in this action, and the Motion to Dismiss [Docket No. 13]
is directed to an inoperative, superseded pleading. See, e.g., Gilles v. United States,
906 F.2d 1386, 1389 (10th Cir. 1990) (“a pleading that has been amended under Rule
15(a) supersedes the pleading it modifies”) (internal quotation marks omitted). As such,
the motion to dismiss is moot. It is
ORDERED that defendants’ Motion to Dismiss the Complaint and Alternate
Motion for a More Definite Statement of Counts I-IV [Docket No. 13] is DENIED as
moot.
DATED December 12, 2012.
