- flsd;;0:17-cv-61648_de12 RegisterActionDescriptionText "PAPERLESS ORDER. THIS CAUSE came before the Court upon Plaintiffs' 11 Agreed Motion to Amend Complaint and 12 Unopposed Motion for Enlargement of Time to File Amended Complaint. Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 15(a)(2) permits a party to amend its pleadings by leave of court or by written consent of the adverse party. The decision to grant or deny a motion to amend pleadings is within the sound discretion of the trial court. Dussouy v. Gulf Coast Inv. Corp., 660 F.2d 594, 598 (5th Cir. 1981). The policy of the federal rules is to permit liberal amendment to facilitate determination of claims on the merits and to prevent litigation from becoming a technical exercise in the fine points of pleading. Id. Thus, unless there is a substantial reason to deny leave to amend, the discretion of the district court is not broad enough to permit denial. Id. A substantial reason could include "undue delay, bad faith or dilatory motive, repeated failure to cure deficiencies by amendments previously allowed, undue prejudice to the opposing party, and futility of the amendment." Grayson v. Kmart Corp., 79 F.3d 1086, 1110 (11th Cir. 1996). Here, the Court does not find a substantial reason to deny Plaintiffs' motion for leave to amend. Additionally, the Court finds that Plaintiffs have demonstrated good cause for an extension for time. Accordingly, UPON CONSIDERATION of the Motions, the pertinent portions of the Record, and being otherwise fully advised in the premises, it is hereby ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that Plaintiffs' 11 Agreed Motion to Amend Complaint and 12 Unopposed Motion for Enlargement of Time are GRANTED. Plaintiffs are instructed to file an amended complaint on the docket on or before September 22, 2017. Signed by Chief Judge K. Michael Moore on 9/16/2017. (bvr) (Entered: 09/16/2017)" @default.
