UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ALEJANDRO GONZALEZ,

Plaintiff,

v.

NELLY KANDKHOROVA,

Defendant.

No. 1:14-cv-01916-DAD-DLB (PC)

ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF’S MOTION 

TO VOLUNTARILY DISMISS CASE

(Doc. No. 33) 

Plaintiff is a prisoner in the custody of the California Department of Corrections and 

Rehabilitation proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil rights action filed pursuant to 

42 U.S.C. § 1983. The action, proceeding on plaintiff’s Eighth Amendment claim against 

defendant Nelly Kandkhorova, is currently in the discovery phase of litigation.

However, on February 25, 2016, plaintiff filed with the court a motion to withdraw his 

claim and to close this case. (Doc. No. 33.) The court directed counsel for defendant to respond 

to plaintiff’s request in light of the fact that any dismissal at plaintiff’s request would be without 

prejudice. (Doc. No. 34.) Defendant responded on February 29, 2016 that there was no objection 

to the granting of plaintiff’s motion. (Doc. No. 35.)
