Moreover, a "motion to withdraw shall include a current mailing address for the attorney's client or the client's new or remaining counsel." Id. Here, the Motion does not indicate whether notice has been served on the client and opposing counsel nor does it include a current mailing address for the attorney's client or the client's new or remaining counsel. See #25 . Accordingly, UPON CONSIDERATION of the Motion, the pertinent portions of the record, and being otherwise fully advised in the premises, it is ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that the Motion #25 is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.

Morgan") Motion to Strike the Amended Complaint, Enter Judgment on the Pleadings, and Clarify Deadlines. #11 . Therein, J.P. Morgan notes that U.S. Bank National Association, rather than J.P. Morgan, is the correct defendant in this matter. Id. Now, Plaintiff requests leave to file a second amended complaint to substitute U.S. Bank National Association for J.P. Morgan as Defendant. #13 at 1. Moreover, Plaintiff "acknowledges that U.S. Bank [National Association] is diverse, and thus, withdraws its Motion to Remand." #14 . Plaintiff may only file a second amended complaint "with the opposing party's written consent or the court's leave." Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a)(2). Moreover, "[t]he court should freely give leave when justice so requires." Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a)(2). The decision whether to grant leave to amend is committed to the sound discretion of the trial court. Best Canvas Products & Supplies, Inc. v. Ploof Truck Lines, Inc., 713 F.2d 618 (11th Cir.1983). However, "[u]nless there is a substantial reason to deny leave to amend, the discretion of the district court is not broad enough to permit denial." Dussouy v. Gulf Coast Investment Corp., 660 F.2d 594, 597 (5th Cir.1981). Here, the Court does not find a substantial reason to deny leave to amend. Accordingly, UPON CONSIDERATION of the Motion, the pertinent portions of the record, and being otherwise fully advised in the premises, it is hereby ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that Plaintiff's Motion #13 is GRANTED. Plaintiff shall file a second amended complaint on or before December 20, 2019. It is further ORDERED that Plaintiff's Motion to Remand #8 is WITHDRAWN as requested and Defendant J.P. Morgan's Motion to Strike Amended Complaint, Enter Judgment on the Pleadings, and Clarify Deadlines #11 is DENIED AS MOOT. Signed by Chief Judge K. Michael Moore on 12/18/2019. (mgh) Clerks Notice: Filer must separately re-file the amended pleading pursuant to Local Rule 15.1, unless otherwise ordered by the Judge.
