UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

On June 10, 2015 Plaintiff filed a Notice of Voluntary Dismissal as to Defendant Allison 

Transmission only. (Doc. 21) He relies upon Fed. R. Civ. P. Rule 41 which provides, “the plaintiff 

may dismiss an action without a court order by filing: (i) a notice of dismissal before the opposing 

party serves either an answer or a motion for summary judgment; . . .” Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A). 

Such a notice is effective as a dismissal without an order of the court. Fed. R. Civ. Pro. 41(a)(1)(ii); 

Wilson v. City of San Jose, 111 F.3d 688, 692 (9th Cir. 1997). However, because this defendant has 

not been terminated on the docket, the Court DIRECTS the Clerk of Court to terminate this action as 

to Defendant, Allison Transmission only. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
