TENTATIVE RULING

 

Plaintiff Lopez’s unopposed motion to amend complaint is GRANTED.  Plaintiff is ordered to immediately file and serve the second amended complaint.

 

Moving Party to give NOTICE.

 

 

Plaintiff Lopez moves for leave to file an amended complaint pursuant to CCP § 473.

 

“A court may, in furtherance of justice, and on such terms as may be proper, allow a party to amend any pleading.” (CCP § 473(a)(1).)  Judicial policy favors resolution of all disputed matters between the parties in the same lawsuit. Thus, the courts discretion will usually be exercised liberally to permit amendments of the pleadings.  (Nestle v. Santa Monica (1972) 6 Cal.3d 920, 939.) 

 

Plaintiff seeks leave to delete an irrelevant sentence in ¶ 8 of the complaint.  (Slipski Decl., ¶ 2.)

 

The motion is GRANTED.  Judicial policy favors resolution of all disputed matters in the same lawsuit.  Moving Party is ordered to immediately file and serve the second amended complaint.
