1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 9 FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 10 11 JONATHAN CHRISTOPHER COFFER, No. 2:24-cv-3247 CKD P 12 Plaintiff, 13 v. ORDER 14 SINGH, et al., 15 Defendants. 16 17 Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and seeking relief pursuant to

1983. On September 9, 2025, the court recommended that plaintiff’s second amended complaint 19 be dismissed for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted and that this case be 20 closed. Plaintiff has filed objections to the court’s September 9, 2025, findings and 21 recommendations. 22 In light of the objections, the court’s September 9, 2025, findings and recommendations 23 will be vacated, and plaintiff will be granted leave to file a third amended complaint. As to the 24 contents of the third amended complaint, plaintiff should refer to the court’s February 26 and 25 March 18 orders, as well as the September 9 findings and recommendations. Plaintiff is reminded 26 that Local Rule 220 requires that an amended complaint be complete in itself without reference to 27 any prior pleading. This is because, as a general rule, an amended complaint supersedes the 28 original complaint. See Loux v. Rhay,

(9th Cir. 1967). 1 In accordance with the above, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 2 1. The September 9, 2025, Findings and Recommendations (ECF No. 27) are 3 VACATED; 4 2. Plaintiffs second amended complaint is dismissed. 5 3. Plaintiff is granted thirty days from the date of service of this order to file a third 6 || amended third complaint that complies with the requirements of the Civil Rights Act, the Federal 7 || Rules of Civil Procedure, and the Local Rules of Practice. The third amended complaint must 8 | bear the docket number assigned this case and must be labeled “Third Amended Complaint.” 9 || Failure to file a third amended complaint in accordance with this order will result in a 10 || recommendation that this action be dismissed. 11 | Dated: September 30, 2025 / aa / x ly a
