Judge Grants Plaintiff Leave to File Amended Complaint After Motion to Dismiss

Chief U.S. District Judge Matthew Brann granted plaintiff Zachary Fridline leave to file an amended complaint in his Telephone Consumer Protection Act lawsuit against Integrity Vehicle Group et al., said his signed order Thursday (docket 4:23-cv-01194) in U.S. District Court for Middle Pennsylvania in Williamsport. The defendant argued in a Tuesday filing in support of a partial motion to dismiss that Fridline’s complaint failed to allege calls to a residential number and failed to allege “an unrequited request for internal policies” (see 2308230045). Fridline must file an amended complaint or a response to the motion by Thursday, the order said. If Fridline timely files an amended complaint, the court will deny without prejudice the motion to dismiss as moot, Brann said.
