1 Although Plaintiff titled his notice of dismissal as a “motion to dissmiss [sic],”

the Court construes this request as a notice of dismissal under Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(i) of the Federal 

Rules of Civil Procedure.

Plaintiff also requested that any money he paid toward the filing fee be returned. 

This request is DENIED. The filing fee is collected by the Court as payment for filing the case, 

and Plaintiff’s case was filed.
