UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SANFORD D. JONES,

Plaintiff,

v.

STEPHEN MAYBERG, et al., 

Defendants.

 /

CASE NO. 1:07-cv-1207-MJS (PC)

ORDER DISMISSING CASE ON

PLAINTIFF’S MOTION

(ECF No. 47)

Plaintiff Sanford D. Jones (“Plaintiff”) is a civil detainee proceeding pro se and in

forma pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On June 14, 2010,

the Court ordered Plaintiff to show cause why this action should not be dismissed based

on his failure to file an amended complaint. (ECF No. 46.) Plaintiff responded that the

subject of his lawsuit was “in a state of flux and unstable” and that, therefore, he wished

to dismiss the current action. (ECF No. 47.) Because Defendants have filed neither an

answer nor a motion for summary judgment, Plaintiff’s notice of dismissal automatically

ends this action. Fed. R. Civ. Proc. 41(a). 

Based on Plaintiff’s request for dismissal, the above-captioned action is DISMISSED

WITHOUT PREJUDICE. The Clerk shall close the case. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
