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.
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.
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.
