UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

On March 18, 2016, the parties filed a stipulation to dismiss the matter with prejudice. (Doc. 

23) The stipulation relies upon Rule 41 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, under which “the 

plaintiff may dismiss an action without a court order by filing: (i) a notice of dismissal before the 

opposing party serves either an answer or a motion for summary judgment; or (ii) a stipulation of 

dismissal signed by all parties who have appeared.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A). Once such a notice 

has been filed, an order of the Court is not required for the dismissal. Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(ii); 

Wilson v. City of San Jose, 111 F.3d 688, 692 (9th Cir. 1997). Thus, the Clerk of Court is 

DIRECTED to close this action in light of the notice of dismissal with prejudice filed and properly 

signed pursuant to Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(ii). 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
