Since an amended complaint supplants the original complaint, it would unduly prejudice a defendant if it were bound by an original answer when the original complaint has no legal effect. As a result, an amended complaint should ordinarily be followed by an answer.

An amended complaint is a written revision of the original complaint filed by a plaintiff or petitioner. Rule 15 of the federal rules of civil procedure allows the plaintiff to amend their complaint one time within 21 days of serving the original complaint or at any point before the defendant answers the complaint.

844 of 2015] the Supreme Court ruled that if the amendment which is sought to be done in the complaint, and is only a simple infirmity, which is responsive to by the means of a formal amendment, and no prejudice is done to the other side in the process, then the Court may allow amendment of the complaint.

An amended complaint does notjust add to the first complaint. Once you file an amended complaint it entirely replaces your original complaint. Amendments to a complaint are governed by Rule 15(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

A party may amend the party's pleadings once as a matter of course at any time before a responsive pleading is served or, if the pleading is one to which no responsive pleading is permitted and the action has not been set for trial, the party may so amend it at any time within fifteen (15) days after it is served.
