ORDER

The notice of voluntary dismissal relies upon Rule 41 of the Federal Rules of Civil 

Procedure, under which “the plaintiff may dismiss an action without a court order by filing: (i) 

a notice of dismissal before the opposing party serves either an answer or a motion for 

summary judgment; or (ii) a stipulation of dismissal signed by all parties who have appeared.” 

Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A). Once such a notice has been filed, an order of the Court is not 

required for the dismissal. Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(ii); Wilson v. City of San Jose, 111 F.3d 

688, 692 (9th Cir. 1997). 

Here, no other party has appeared in this action. Thus, the Clerk of Court is 

DIRECTED to close this action in light of the notice of dismissal without prejudice filed and 

properly signed pursuant to Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(ii). 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
