CASE NO. C17-58 RSL-BAT
On September 11, 2017, Sean D. Anderson filed a motion for leave to amend his
14
complaint. Dkt. 27. He seeks to substitute defendants Allen K. Richards and John Doe with
15
Officers Adam D. Beatty and William F. Anderson. Id. He does not appear to request any other
16
changes to his complaint. In their response, defendants do not object to substituting the names of
17
the defendants, but contend the motion fails to comply with Local Rule 15. Dkt. 28. Defendants
18
also request a 30-day extension of all remaining deadlines. Id. Because Mr. Anderson seeks only
19
to substitute Adam D. Beatty for Alan K. Richards, and William F. Anderson for John Doe and
20
has not moved for further amendment, the Court GRANTS Mr. Anderson’s motion limited to
21
substitution of the above defendants and ORDERS:
