Before the court are defendant Sandra-Mae Pickens’ motion to dismiss (ECF No. 26),
21
defendants Yerington Paiute Tribe and Laurie A. Thom’s motion to dismiss (ECF No. 27), and
22
defendant Yerington Paiute Tribal Court’s motion to dismiss (ECF No. 28) plaintiffs BP
23
America Inc. and Atlantic Richfield Company’s complaint (ECF No. 1).
24
However, after the filing of defendants’ motions, plaintiff filed an amended complaint
25
with leave of court. See ECF No. 38. The filing of the amended complaint supersedes the
26
original complaint in its entirety. Further, the court notes and recognizes that defendants have
27
already filed new motions to dismiss the amended complaint which the court shall address in a
28

separate order. See ECF Nos. 41, 51, 53. Accordingly, defendants’ present motions to dismiss

the complaint are now moot and the court shall deny defendants’ motions.
