ORDER

Before the Court are Defendants the United States of America’s Motion to

Dismiss [Doc. No. 53], William Hayes’s and Jason Hill’s Motion to Dismiss [Doc. No.

54], and Dale Baughman’s Motion to Dismiss [Doc. No. 63] (collectively, “Motions”),

all directed at Plaintiffs’ First Amended Complaint. [Doc. No. 51].

Plaintiffs have filed a Second Amended Complaint. [Doc. No. 77]. Plaintiffs’

Second Amended Complaint “supersedes the [complaints before it] and renders [them] of

no legal effect.” Davis v. TXO Prod. Corp., 929 F.2d 1515, 1517 (10th Cir. 1991); see

also Predator Int’l, Inc. v. Gamo Outdoor USA, Inc., 793 F.3d 1177, 1180–81 (10th Cir.

2015); Mink v. Suthers, 482 F.3d 1244, 1254 (10th Cir. 2007). Accordingly, the Motions

are now moot.

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the Motions to Dismiss [Doc. Nos. 53, 54,

63] are DENIED as moot and without prejudice.

IT IS SO ORDERED this 17th day of February 2022.
