Opinion
IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF MISSISSIPPI GREENVILLE DIVISION
WILBERT COLEMAN PLAINTIFF
v. No. 4:20CV126-DAS
TIMOTHY MORRIS, ET AL. DEFENDANTS
ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF’S MOTION [26] TO AMEND COMPLAINT
This matter comes before the court on the motion [26] by the plaintiff to amend his complaint. A “court should freely give leave [to amend] when justice so requires.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a)). Although not automatic, the decision to grant or deny such leave is within the sound discretion of the district court. Bloom v. Bexar County, Texas, 130 F.3d 722, 727 (5th Cir. 1997), Halbert v. City of Sherman, 33 F.3d 526, 529 (5th Cir. 1994). The motion [26] is well taken and is GRANTED. The instant complaint is deemed amended as of the date the instant motion was filed. SO ORDERED, this, the 16th day of July, 2021.
