2021 California Rules of Court (2) "Amended pleading" means a pleading that completely restates and supersedes the pleading it amends for all purposes.A supplement to a pleading may add information to or may correct omissions in the modified pleading.
It means to change the basis for the case in some way. A motion to amend a complaint is the formal way of asking the court for permission to change the original complaint.
Amend. v. to alter or change by adding, subtracting, or substituting. One can amend a statute, a contract or a written pleading filed in a law -suit. The change is usually called an amendment.
Amended complaint. n. what results when the party suing (plaintiff or petitioner) changes the complaint he/she has filed. It must be in writing, and can be done before the complaint is served on any defendant, by agreement between the parties (usually their lawyers), or upon order of the court.
The defendant shall answer the amendments, or the complaint as amended, within 30 days after service thereof, or such other time as the court may direct, and judgment by default may be entered upon failure to answer, as in other cases.
(e) (1) In response to a demurrer and prior to the case being at issue, a complaint or cross-complaint shall not be amended more than three times, absent an offer to the trial court as to such additional facts to be pleaded that there is a reasonable possibility the defect can be cured to state a cause of action.
Once a defendant has answered, a first amended complaint can only be filed and served with leave of court. If the plaintiff did not get the court's permission, it is not deemed a valid first amended complaint.
