Komatsu v. The City of New York et al

Filing 347

ORDER: Plaintiff seeks "3 to 4 days" to file his motion to amend (Docket # 343). At the same time, plaintiff has submitted several documents that are intended to be proposed third amended complaints (Docket ## 344-346). The Court notes for plaintiff's benefit that his motion to amend must be accompanied by a copy of a single proposed third amended complaint. In other words, the proposed third amended complaint must be a single document with consecutively numbered paragraphs. The r ecently-filed proposed third amended complaints (Docket ## 344-346) do not meet this requirement and thus will not be considered. Given that plaintiff apparently did not understand he had to submit a single document ashis third amended complaint, the Court will grant additional time for the filing of the motion to amend. Plaintiff's deadline for filing the motion to amend, with an attached proposed third amended complaint, is extended to May 27, 2020. The Clerk is requested to mail a copy of this Order to the plaintiff. SO ORDERED., ( Motions due by 5/27/2020.) (Signed by Magistrate Judge Gabriel W. Gorenstein on 5/06/2020) (ama) Transmission to Docket Assistant Clerk for processing.

GABRIEL W. GORENSTEIN, UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Plaintiff seeks “3 to 4 days” to file his motion to amend (Docket # 343). At the same
time, plaintiff has submitted several documents that are intended to be proposed third amended
complaints (Docket ## 344-346). The Court notes for plaintiff’s benefit that his motion to
amend must be accompanied by a copy of a single proposed third amended complaint. In other
words, the proposed third amended complaint must be a single document with consecutively
numbered paragraphs. The recently-filed proposed third amended complaints (Docket ## 344346) do not meet this requirement and thus will not be considered.
Given that plaintiff apparently did not understand he had to submit a single document as
his third amended complaint, the Court will grant additional time for the filing of the motion to
amend. Plaintiff’s deadline for filing the motion to amend, with an attached proposed third
amended complaint, is extended to May 27, 2020.
The Clerk is requested to mail a copy of this Order to the plaintiff.
