First Amended Complaint Guidelines

Summary

A First Amended Complaint allows you to revise your original complaint by adding or deleting claims. In Missouri, you can file it within the time allowed to respond to the original complaint or with court permission afterward. Label the resubmitted document as First Amended Complaint and notify the clerk. Ensure all missing elements, such as the relief amount, are included. You can hire an attorney at any point during your case. For legal representation, contact the Missouri Bar Associations Lawyer Referral Service.

In Missouri:

In Missouri, it's crucial to include the relief or "prayer for relief" in your complaint. This outlines what you're asking the court to do, such as awarding damages. Could you specify what else the judge pointed out as missing?
