Opinion
IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF MISSISSIPPI GREENVILLE DIVISION
KATIE YOUNG PLAINTIFF
VS. CIVIL ACTION NO. 4:25-CV-83-DMB-DAS
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY STATE UNIVERSITY DEFENDANT
ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO STRIKE On August 14, 2025, this court denied Plaintiff’s motion for leave to file an amended complaint [Dkt. 16]. Despite that denial, Plaintiff filed an amended complaint on August 19, 2025, which Defendant has moved to strike. The matter has been fully briefed and is ripe for review. “The failure to obtain leave results in an amended complaint having no legal effect.” U.S. ex rel. Matthews v. HealthSouth Corp., 332 F.3d 293, 296 (5th Cir. 2003). Plaintiff not only failed to obtain leave but ignored the court’s order denying leave. Defendant’s motion is therefore well-taken and is hereby GRANTED. Plaintiff’s second Amended Complaint [Dkt. 17] is hereby STRICKEN. SO ORDERED, this the 16th day of September, 2025.
/s/ David A. Sanders UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
