ESTATE OF BRENT RENARD RICHARDSON, JR., by Next of Kin PATRICE RICHARDSON Plaintiff, v. CORECIVIC, et al., Defendants.
ORDER DENYING DEFENDANTS' MOTIONS TO DISMISS AS MOOT
S. THOMAS ANDERSON, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE.
Defendants have filed two motions to dismiss. (ECF Nos. 15, 16.) Plaintiff has responded to the motions (ECF Nos. 20, 21) and has also an amended complaint. (ECF No. 19.) In light of the filing of the amended complaint, Defendants' motions to dismiss are DENIED as moot. See Parry v. Mohawk Motors of Mich., Inc., 236 F.3d 299, 306 (6th Cir. 2000) (holding that the amended complaint supersedes all previous complaints and becomes the operative pleading)); see also Glass v. The Kellogg Co., 252 F.R.D. 367, 368 (W.D. Mich. 2008) (“Because the original complaint has been superseded and nullified, there is no longer a live dispute about the propriety or merit of the claims asserted therein; therefore, any motion to dismiss such claims is moot.”)
IT IS SO ORDERED.
