ORDER DIRECTING CLERK OF COURT

TO TERMINATE ACTION

Pursuant to the notice of voluntary dismissal of this action

filed by Plaintiff on January 28, 2008, this action is terminated. 

See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1) ("[A]n action may be dismissed by the

plaintiff without order of the court . . . by filing a notice of

dismissal."); Hamilton v. Shearson-Lehman American Exp. Inc., 813

F.2d 1532, 1534-1536 (9th Cir. 1987) (Rule 41(a)(1)(I) does not

require leave of court to dismiss the action). The dismissal is

without prejudice. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1) (unless

plaintiff's notice of dismissal states otherwise, it is deemed to

be "without prejudice"); Humphreys v. United States, 272 F.2d 411,

412 (9th Cir. 1959).

The Clerk of the Court shall close the file. Plaintiff's in

forma pauperis application is DENIED. All pending motions are

terminated as moot.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: 2/5/08
