(ECF No. 5.) Seven days later, Plaintiff filed a 19 First Amended Complaint. (ECF No. 6.)

This amendment as a matter of course renders an original complaint 22 null. Rhodes v. Robinson, 621 F.3d 1002, 1005 (9th Cir. 2010) (“[W]hen a plaintiff files an 23 amended complaint, the amended complaint supersedes the original, the latter being treated 24 thereafter as non-existent.”). 25 Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Defendant’s pending motion to dismiss 26 (ECF No. 5) is DENIED AS MOOT. 27 //// 28 1 IT IS SO ORDERED. 2 | Dated: October 29, 2019 ; Frese Arn 4 KENDALL J.
