December 1, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 8 PAPERLESS ORDER denying as moot #7 the Plaintiff's Motion for "Adding 2 Plaintiff." The Court (very generously) construes this motion as a motion for leave to file an amended complaint (through which the Plaintiff hopes to add two co-plaintiffs). Under Rule 15, however, the Plaintiff may amend her complaint as a matter of course until she serves it. Thus, the Plaintiff does not need the Court's permission to amend her complaint at this time. The Court would note, however, that a motion for leave to amend-standing alonedoes nothing to add the two new plaintiffs. Instead, if the Plaintiff wishes to add a party, she must file an amended complaint. Signed by Judge Roy K. Altman on 12/1/2020. (drd)
