March 13, 2024 Opinion or Order ORDER denying #7 Motion for Pre Motion Conference. I have reviewed the parties' letters regarding the requested pre-motion conference and have determined that a conference is not necessary.

Rather than grant defendant leave to file a motion to dismiss a complaint that plaintiff has proposed amending, I will grant plaintiff leave to amend the complaint. Plaintiff is directed to file an amended complaint on or before March 22, 2024. If defendant still wishes to file a motion to dismiss after reviewing the amended complaint, defendant should file a second motion for a pre-motion conference. Ordered by Judge Allyne R.
