[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Honorable Judge's Full Name] [Judge's Designation] [Courthouse Address] [City, State, ZIP] Re: [Case Name and Number] Dear Judge [Judge's Last Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to request an order granting our motion for leave to file a separate amended complaint in the above-mentioned case. Background: To provide some context, our original complaint was filed on [Date] and since then, we have identified crucial new evidence and discovered additional causes of action that demand the filing of a separate amended complaint. The amended complaint aims to include these newly discovered facts and causes of action, which were unknown or could not reasonably have been known at the time of our initial pleading. Grounds for Motion: In support of our motion, we demonstrate that the proposed amended complaint is not a mere supplement or modification of the original complaint but rather distinct and independent. The amended complaint asserts new legal theories, involves additional parties, and introduces fresh allegations that have a direct bearing on the issues presented in this case. Furthermore, Missouri Rules of Civil Procedure [Rule Number] permits a party to amend its pleadings once as a matter of course before a responsive pleading is served. As no responsive pleading has been served yet, we have the right to amend our complaint freely. However, in order to avoid any confusion, we seek the court's approval to file a separate amended complaint, clearly delineated from the original filing, to ensure clarity and transparency throughout the proceedings. Relief Sought: In light of the foregoing, we pray that Your Honor grants our motion for leave to file a separate amended complaint. By separating our amended pleading from the original complaint, it will facilitate better organization of the case and prevent any undue prejudice, confusion, or misinterpretation of our claims. We have attached a copy of the proposed separate amended complaint, which highlights the amendments made and the reasoning behind them, for Your Honor's review. We affirm that these amendments are essential for the proper resolution of this case and will serve the interests of justice. Furthermore, we appreciate Your Honor's attention to this matter and look forward to a favorable ruling on our motion. Should you require any additional information or have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at [Phone Number] or via email at [Email Address]. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, [Your Name]
