WO 

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE DISTRICT OF ARIZONA 

Joyce Juniel, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

Laboratory Corporation of America, 

Anasazi Internal Medicine, 

Defendants. 

No. CV-12-01539-PHX-DGC

ORDER 

 Defendant Anasazi Internal Medicine (“Anasazi”) filed by special appearance a 

motion for clarification of the Court’s order issued on May 17, 3013. Doc. 38; see

Doc. 37. In that order, the Court found that there was no diversity between Plaintiff, a 

resident of Arizona, and Anasazi, a medical practice incorporated in Arizona with its 

principle place of business in Arizona. Doc. 37 at 3. Because inclusion of Anasazi 

would destroy complete diversity and deprive the Court of subject matter jurisdiction, the 

Court explained that it would “exercise its discretion under Rule 41(a)(2) and dismiss 

Anasazi without prejudice, allowing the current action to proceed against Labcorp and 

preserving Plaintiff’s option to pursue any separate claims against Anasazi in an 

appropriate forum.” Id. at 4. The formal order of dismissal erroneously stated that 

“Anasazi is dismissed with prejudice.” Id. at 10, ¶ 10. The Court has corrected this error 

and issued an amended order dismissing Anasazi without prejudice. 

 Dated this 24th day of May, 2013.
