Stipulation to Dismiss

C07-5221 EDL 2

Director of Domestic Operations, HQ 70/23 and 70/28.1, (attached as Exh. A) was implicated in

this case. The Federal Bureau of Immigration completed Plaintiff’s name check earlier this year

and, therefore, the Aytes Memorandum was not implicated in this case. However, on March 17,

2008, USCIS approved Plaintiff’s application for adjustment of status to legal permanent resident.

Accordingly, Plaintiff, by and through her attorney of record, and Defendants by and through

their attorney of record, hereby stipulate, subject to the approval of the Court, to dismissal of the

action in light of the adjudication of Plaintiff’s adjustment of status application (Form I-485).

Dated: March 17, 2008 Respectfully submitted,
