On January 3, 2020, Plaintiff Christopher Tafoya, proceeding pro se and in forma 

pauperis, filed this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. (ECF No. 1.) On March 30, 

2020, Plaintiff filed a notice of voluntary dismissal pursuant to Rule 41 of the Federal Rules of

close this action pursuant to the notice of dismissal. (ECF No. 9.) On April 2, 2020, a second 

notice of voluntary dismissal was filed that appears substantively identical to the first filing. 

(ECF No. 10.) The Court shall strike the filing as duplicative.
