ORDER DENYING DEFENDANT'S MOTION TO DISMISS AS MOOT AND GRANTING STIPULATION TO CONTINUE HEARING AND BRIEFING DATES RELATING TO DEFENDANT'S MOTION TO STAY PROCEEDINGS

(Doc. Nos. 8, 9, 20)

On July 17, 2017, Plaintiff filed a First Amended Complaint as a matter of right — within 21 days of Defendant's Motion to Dismiss pursuant to F.R.C.P 12(b)(6). See Fed. R. Civ. Proc. 15(a)(1)(B); Ramirez v. Cty. of San Bernardino, 806 F.3d 1002, 1008 (9th Cir. 2015) ("The Defendants' Rule 12(b)(6) and 12(e) motion was filed on May 22, 2013. Rule 15(a)(1)(B) allowed the Plaintiff to amend once within twenty-one days after service of that motion.") Plaintiff's First Amended Complaint rendered Defendant's pending Motion to Dismiss the original complaint (Doc. No. 8) moot. See Ramirez, 806 F.3d at 1008 ("It is well-established in our circuit that an `amended complaint supersedes the original, the latter being treated thereafter as non-existent.'") (citation omitted).

The parties have filed a joint stipulation (Doc. No. 20) to vacate and continue the hearing currently scheduled for July 31, 2017 on Defendant's Motion to Stay Proceedings (Doc. No. 9) pending ruling by the United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit in ACA Int'l v. Federal Commc'n, No. 15-1211 (D.C. Cir.). Additionally, Defendant plans to file a Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff's First Amended Complaint and the parties request that the Motion to Stay and the Motion to Dismiss be heard by the Court at the same time.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Defendant's current motion to dismiss (Doc. No. 8) is DENIED as moot; 2. The July 31, 2017 hearing on the Motion to Stay (Doc. No. 9) is VACATED and will be heard with Defendant's anticipated Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff's Amended Complaint; 3. Defendant's anticipated Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff's Amended Complaint is due on July 31, 2017; and 4. Defendant's reply brief in support of its Motion to Stay (Doc. No. 9) shall be filed together with the reply in support of the anticipated Motion to Dismiss.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
