5 Plaintiff Order Granting Plaintiff’s Motion for Leave to File a Second Amended Complaint 6 v.

7 General Dynamics Information Technology, [ECF No. 68] 8 Defendant 9 10 On May 19, 2025, I allowed plaintiff Amina Johnson to file a second amended complaint 11 (SAC) provided that it met the following requirements: (1) the motion attached a copy of the 12 proposed SAC in accordance with Local Rule 15-1(a); (2) the SAC must be filed by June 9, 2025; 13 (3) the SAC must comply with Federal Rules of Civil Procedure; and (4) the SAC must be 14 complete in and of itself, must not refer in any manner to any prior complaint, and must include 15 all of the claims and factual basis in support of those claims she wishes to assert against 16 defendant General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT). See Order, ECF No. 67 at 8. On 17 May 27, 2025, Johnson filed a motion for leave to file a SAC with the proposed SAC attached. 18 Mot., ECF No. 68. GDIT opposes the motion, arguing, in sum, that the motion fails to comply 19 with Rule 8 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and raises statute of limitations questions. 20 See Opp’n, ECF No. 69. 21 Conclusion 22 Liberally construing the proposed SAC1 reveals that it substantially complies with my 23 prior order. Therefore, Johnson’s motion for leave to file second amended complaint [ECF No. 24 25

26 1 See Entler v. Gregoire, 872 F.3d 1031, 1038 (9th Cir. 2017) (“A pro se complaint must be ‘liberally construed,’ since ‘a pro se complaint, however clumsily pleaded, must be held to less stringent standards than formal pleadings drafted by lawyers.’”) (quoting Erickson v. Pardus, 551 U.S. 89, 94 (2007)). 1 68] is GRANTED. Defendant’s opposition raises issues that can be addressed via motion to 2|| dismiss. 3 The Clerk of Court is kindly instructed to detach the SAC from the motion for leave and 4|| to docket it, and its exhibits, separately.” /, ) 5 Dated: July 29, 2025 LZ ‘
