ORDER DISMISSING ACTION

PURSUANT TO PLAINTIFF’S

NOTICE OF VOLUNTARY

DISMISSAL

(DOC # 11)

Plaintiff is a prisoner proceeding pro se. Plaintiff has filed a civil rights complaint and has

requested leave to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. 

On December 21, 2007, plaintiff filed a document in which he states that he wishes to

dismiss this action. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a), an action may be dismissed

by plaintiff by filing a notice of dismissal before service by the adverse party of an answer or of a

motion for summary judgment. None of the defendants named in this action have been served with

the complaint, thus they have not filed an answer or other responsive pleading. 

Accordingly, this action is DISMISSED pursuant to plaintiff’s notice of voluntary dismissal

and the Clerk of Court is directed to close the file in this action.
