ANSWER to Complaint with Affirmative Defenses and Special Defenses by Greenwich Hotel Limited Partnership, Hyatt Corp, Hyatt Equities, L.L.C..(Luce, Cheryl)
ORDER granting 37 Motion to Amend/Correct. Rule 15(a)(2) mandates that the Court give leave "freely" to amend pleadings "when justice so requires." Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a)(2). In considering whether to grant leave to amend a pleading, the Court considers such factors as undue delay, bad faith, dilatory motive, undue prejudice, and futility of amendment. See Foman v. Davis, 371 U.S. 178, 182 (1962). See Hanlin v. Mitchelson, 794 F.2d 834, 841 (2d Cir. 1986); Block v. First Blood Assocs., 988 F.2d 344, 250 (2d Cir. 1993) ("The rule in this Circuit has been to allow a party to amend its pleadings in the absence of a showing by the nonmovant of prejudice or bad faith."). Plaintiffs seek to add additional plaintiffs with related claims to their complaint. Defendant does not oppose this motion. Finally, the Scheduling Order, which allows the plaintiffs to amend complaint until 1/17/2017, is not disturbed by granting this motion. The Court does not find that any of the factors that warrant denial of a motion to amend a pleading to be present in this case. Signed by Judge Victor A. Bolden on 12/2/2016. (Ghosh, S.)
