UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

TROY MITCHELL NAYLOR,

Plaintiff,

v.

CLIFF ALLENBY, et al.,

Defendants.

CASE NO. 1:11-cv-01649-LJO-MJS (PC)

ORDER GRANTING VOLUNTARY 

DISMISSAL WITH PREJUDICE 

(ECF No. 44)

CLERK TO TERMINATE ALL PENDING 

MOTIONS AND CLOSE CASE

Plaintiff is a civil detainee who is being held at Coalinga State Hospital. He is

proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 

1983. (ECF Nos. 1 & 5.) 

On November 2, 2015, Plaintiff filed a notice of voluntary dismissal. (ECF No. 

44.) It appears from Plaintiff’s motion that he seeks dismissal with prejudice. Plaintiff 

states that he “realizes that the subject matter can never be re-opened and forfeits any 

future legal action in this matter.” (ECF No. 44 at 2.) 

Because Defendant Duvall had already appeared in the action and filed an 

answer, the Court ordered Defendant to respond to Plaintiff’s motion. (ECF No. 45.) On 

December 17, 2015, Defendant Duvall responded that he does not object to Plaintiff’s 

motion for voluntary dismissal. (ECF No. 46.)

The Court may dismiss an action under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(2) 

at a plaintiff’s request. Plaintiff acknowledges that the dismissal will be with prejudice, 

and Defendant does not object.

Accordingly, this action is hereby DISMISSED with prejudice. The Clerk shall 

terminate all pending motions and CLOSE this case.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
