MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

This matter is before the Court on Plaintiffs Memorandum in response to
the Court's Order to Show Cause dated August 11, 2017 (ECF No. 11), which the
Court construes as a motion to amend her complaint by interlineation. The Court
does not accept amendments by interlineation. 1 If plaintiff wishes to amend her
complaint, she must file a motion to amend and include with her motion a
proposed complaint that includes each and every claim she wishes to bring against
Defendant in this action. Help with filing a pro se complaint is available at

1

Popoalii v. Correctional Medical Services, 512 F .3d 488, 497 (8th Cir.

2008) (finding that it is appropriate to deny leave to amend a complaint when a
proposed amendment was not submitted with the motion).

http://www.moed.uscourts.gov/pro-se. Plaintiff is warned that the filing of an
amended complaint replaces the original complaint, and claims that are not
realleged are deemed abandoned. E.g., In re Wireless Telephone Federal Cost
Recovery Fees Litigation, 396 F.3d 922, 928 (8th Cir. 2005).

Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiffs Motion for Leave to Amend
(ECF No. 11) is DENIED without prejudice.
Dated this 11th day of September, 2017.
