STIPULATION OF DISMISSAL

Patriot Rail Corp. (together with Patriot Rail, LLC, “Patriot”) and Sierra Railroad 

Company (“Sierra”) file this stipulation of dismissal under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 

41(a)(1)(A). 

On February 18, 2014, Patriot filed a motion for leave to file its second amended 

complaint, dismissing two of Patriot’s claims against Sierra. At the Daubert hearing on February 

21, 2014, and in the Minute Order (Dkt. 401) issued on March 5, 2014, the Court informed Patriot 

that it would not grant Patriot leave to amend its complaint, but granted the parties leave to file a 

stipulated dismissal under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(1)(A). 

Accordingly, Patriot and Sierra file this stipulation and [proposed] order of dismissal, 

dismissing the fourth and fifth causes of action from Patriot’s first amended complaint (Dkt. 61): 

Patriot’s federal unfair competition and common law violations claim; and its California Business 

and Professions Code section 17200 claim against Sierra.

In addition, Patriot and Sierra stipulate to the dismissal of the eighth claim for relief from 

Sierra’s Second Amended Counterclaim (Dkt. 299): Sierra’s federal unfair competition and 

common law violations claim.

Furthermore, Patriot and Sierra stipulate to the dismissal of Sierra’s claims against crossdefendant Larry Coe. Sierra and Coe have entered into a mutual release of all claims (attached 

hereto as Exhibit A), whether currently known or unknown, including the express waiver of the 

provisions of California Civil Code section 1542. Patriot and Sierra have further agreed that 

Mr. Coe is not required to be present at trial pursuant to Stipulation No. 8 in the Amended Joint 

Pretrial Statement (Dkt. 316), though Patriot agrees to produce Mr. Coe as a witness at trial upon 

two business days’ notice from Sierra to Patriot.
