How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • claims not raised in “amended complaint . . . therefore were abandoned before the district court.”
  • “It is well established that an amended complaint ordinarily supersedes the original, and renders it of no legal effect.”
  • “It is also generally the case that all causes of action alleged in an original complaint which are not alleged in an amended complaint are waived.”
  • where a party is represented by counsel, “it makes perfect sense to hold that a party who seeks to file an amended pleading that omits a claim intends to abandon the claim, irrespective of whether the amended pleading is permitted by the court” (quotation omitted)
