Pleadings • Motion to Amend Complaint • Prejudice to Adverse Party

Guiffrida v. City of Scranton, PICS Case No. 17-1383 (C.P. Lackawanna Aug. 18, 2017) Nealon, J. (11 pages).

The court granted plaintiffs’ request to amend their pleading in this class-action suit challenging the city of Scranton’s rental registration fees since the amendment raised the same legal issue prompted by the original complaint and defendant failed to identify any prejudice it would suffer if the request was granted. The court granted plaintiffs’ motion to amend.
