Case No: 5:24-cv-717-LCB

MEMORANDUM

The parties have filed a Joint Stipulation of Dismissal (Doc. 17). Parties may 

dismiss a lawsuit voluntarily by filing a stipulation of dismissal signed by all parties 

who have appeared, except in suits involving class or derivative actions, 

unincorporated associations, and receiverships. Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A)(ii). None 

of these exceptions apply here. 

A joint stipulation of dismissal is “self-executing” upon proper filing. Love v. 

Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., 865 F.3d 1322, 1325 (11th Cir. 2017). Because the parties 

have filed a joint stipulation of dismissal signed by all remaining parties, the case 

was dismissed immediately upon filing of the stipulation. Per the joint stipulation, 

Fendley’s claims against the Defendants are dismissed WITH PREJUDICE. (Doc. 

12). Costs are taxed as paid.
