On July 2, 2015, the Court received a copy of a “Stipulation for Voluntary Dismissal with 

Prejudice” pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1) signed by both plaintiff and counsel for defendants. 

The signed stipulation states:

action with prejudice under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure

Each party shall bear its own litigation costs and attorney’s fees.
