ORDER AND FINAL JUDGMENT

Plaintiff, a state inmate, filed this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint on April 25, 2016. Prior to 

service of the complaint, Plaintiff filed a motion wherein he requests dismissal of this case. The 

court construes the motion as a Notice of Dismissal pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A)(i), 

which permits voluntary dismissal by a plaintiff “before the opposing party serves either an answer 

or a motion for summary judgment[.]” Under Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(B), such dismissal is 

“without prejudice.” 

Accordingly, it is the ORDER, JUDGMENT, and DECREE of the court that this case is 

DISMISSED without prejudice pursuant to Plaintiff’s Notice of Dismissal. Doc. #4.

No costs are taxed. 

The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to furnish the account clerk at the Easterling 

Correctional Facility with a copy of this order.

The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to enter this document on the civil docket as a final 

judgment pursuant to Rule 58 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. 

This case is closed.
