THE HONORABLE PETE BUTTIGIEG,

Case No. 2:22-cv-00857-CDS-NJK

[Docket No. 12]

Defendant(s).
Pending before the Court is Plaintiff’s motion for leave to amend. Docket No. 12. As a

14 threshold matter, it is not clear that leave of Court is required for Plaintiff to amend given that no
15 defendant has appeared in the case. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a)(1); see also Vanguard Outdoor, LLC
16 v. City of Los Angeles, 648 F.3d 737, 748 (9th Cir. 2011). To the extent leave is required, the
17 motion contains no points and authorities or meaningfully developed argument. But see Local
18 Rule 7-2(d); Kor Media Grp., LLC v. Green, 294 F.R.D. 579, 582 n.3 (D. Nev. 2013).
19 Accordingly, the motion for leave to amend is DENIED without prejudice.
20

IT IS SO ORDERED.
