Judge
Analisa Torres
Date

Background

Yovanny Dominguez filed an amended complaint on March 6, 2020. CorePower Yoga, LLC had filed a motion to dismiss on February 28, 2020.

Ruling

The court denied CorePower’s motion to dismiss as moot. “Moot” means that the motion no longer required a ruling because the amended complaint had been filed. The court cited the general rule that filing an amended complaint after a motion to dismiss the initial complaint typically makes that motion moot.

Judge Analisa Torres directed the Clerk of Court to terminate the motion listed at ECF No. 19. The order did not rule on the merits of the amended complaint or state whether any claim was legally sufficient.
