IN THE UNITED STATE DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO
Magistrate Judge Boyd N. Boland
Civil Action No. 13-cv-02664-REB-BNB
JOSHUA C. JOHNSON,
Plaintiff,
v.
GEORGE SANTINI,
ALICIA VINYARD,
T. K. COZZA RHODES, and
PETER BLUDWORTH,
Defendants.
______________________________________________________________________________
ORDER
______________________________________________________________________________
This matter arises on the plaintiff’s Motion for Joinder of Claims and Joinder of
Parties [Doc. #62, filed 11/17/2014]. The plaintiff seeks to file a supplement to his Amended
Complaint which adds allegations and defendants.
The plaintiff may not amend his Amended Complaint by simply filing piecemeal
amendments and supplements. Rather, he must file the entire proposed amended complaint on
the court’s prisoner complaint form. The plaintiff may not incorporate by reference his original
or Amended Complaint into the proposed second amended complaint. The second amended
complaint must stand alone; it must contain all of the plaintiff’s claims. Mink v. Suthers, 482
F.3d 1244, 1254 (10th Cir. 2007) (stating that “an amended complaint supercedes an original
complaint and renders the original complaint without legal effect”) (internal quotations and
citations omitted).
IT IS ORDERED:

(1)

The plaintiff’s Motion for Joinder of Claims and Joinder of Parties [Doc. #62] is

DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE; and
(2) The Clerk of the Court is directed to mail a copy of the court’s prisoner complaint
form to the plaintiff.
Dated November 21, 2014.
BY THE COURT:
s/ Boyd N. Boland
United States Magistrate Judge
