JUVENILE DETENTION, et al.,

CASE NO. 2:21-cv-01720-RSM-BAT
ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR
LEAVE TO AMEND, DKT. 21,
WITHOUT PREJUDICE

Defendant.
Plaintiff has indicated the desire to amend his complaint. The Court ordered Plaintiff to
file a motion to amend complaint and attach a proposed amended complaint so the Court can
review it and Defendant can respond to the motion.
Despite the Court's order, Plaintiff filed a second motion on May 5, 2022 stating he
moves to amend his complaint. No grounds are given and a proposed amended complaint was
not attached. See Dkt. 21.
The Court therefore ORDERS:
(1)

Plaintiff's motion to amend, Dkt. 21, is DENIED without prejudice.

(2)

If Plaintiff seeks permission to file an amended complaint, he should file a motion

requesting leave to amend containing an explanation for the amendment, and attach the proposed
amended complaint. The amended complaint shall underline changes or amendments to the
