later than 21 days after service of a responsive pleading, or relevant here, 21 days after service of
a motion under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b). On December 29, 2025, Defendant filed
a motion to dismiss Plaintiffs’ complaint. (Dkt. No. 11.) On January 16, 2026, Plaintiffs filed an
amended complaint. (Dkt. No. 12.)
As Plaintiffs’ amended complaint supersedes their original complaint, the Court DENIES
as moot Defendant’s motion to dismiss (Dkt. No. 11) Plaintiff’s original complaint (Dkt. No. 1).
