STIPULATION FOR VOLUNTARY DISMISSAL OF 

LEGACY VULCAN CORP. - CASE NO. 07-CV-00491-

LJO-GSA 

9576005.1

- 1 -

Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(2) and (c) and Local Rule 83-143, 

Third-Party Defendant and Cross-Claimant Legacy Vulcan Corp. (“Vulcan”) (erroneously sued as 

“Vulcan Materials Company”) and Third Party Defendant/Cross Claimant M.B.L. Inc. (“MBL”) 

respectfully request that this Court enter an order dismissing without prejudice MBL’s crossclaim against Vulcan. In support of this request, Vulcan and MBL would show the following: 

1. MBL’s operative cross-claim (Doc. 139, filed Jan. 28, 2008) asserts a cross-claim 

against Vulcan (among other parties). 

2. MBL desires to dismiss without prejudice its cross-claim against Vulcan pursuant 

to Federal Rule 41(a)(2), as made applicable by Rule 41(c). Vulcan has no 

objection to such voluntary dismissal. 

3. Vulcan and MBL agree that they will bear their own costs with respect to the 

aforementioned cross-claim. 

4. The dismissal of MBL’s cross-claim against Vulcan will terminate the last 

remaining claim for relief asserted against Vulcan in this action. 

Accordingly, the parties hereto respectfully request that this Court enter an order dismissing 

without prejudice MBL’s cross-claim against Vulcan, with the parties to bear their own costs with 

respect to such claim.
