ORDER DISMISSING CASE

PURSUANT TO PLAINTIFF’S

NOTICE OF VOLUNTARY

DISMISSAL

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro per and in forma pauperis with a civil rights action

pursuant to 42 U.S.C. section 1983. On December 15, 2005, plaintiff filed a notice of voluntary

dismissal. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a), an action may be dismissed by

plaintiff by filing a notice of dismissal before service by the adverse party of an answer or of a

motion for summary judgment. Because defendants have appeared in this action and have filed a

motion for summary judgment, the Court ordered defendants to respond to plaintiff’s notice of

dismissal. On December 27, 2005, defendants filed a notice stating that they did not opposes

plaintiff’s voluntary dismissal.

Accordingly, pursuant to plaintiff’s notice of voluntary dismissal and defendants nonopposition thereto, this action is HEREBY DISMISSED without prejudice.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
