SAN JOSE DIVISION

Shannon Ramsay,

Plaintiff,

 v.

Defendant.

 /

NO. C 07-03645 JW 

ORDER DISMISSING PLAINTIFF’S

SECOND AND THIRD CAUSES OF ACTION

Shannon Ramsay (“Plaintiff”), in pro per, brings this action against the State Bar of

California (“Defendant”) for alleged violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. §

12101. Plaintiff alleges she was discriminated against during administration of the California Bar

Examination.

The Court is in receipt of a letter from Plaintiff requesting dismissal of her breach of contract

and negligence causes of action. (See Docket Item No. 51.) Defendant stipulates to the dismissal. 

(See Docket Item No. 52.) In light of Plaintiff’s pro se status, the Court construes Plaintiff’s letter

and Defendant’s stipulation to be a voluntary dismissal pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure

41(a)(1)(A)(ii). 

Accordingly, the Court DISMISSES Plaintiff’s Second Cause of Action for Breach of

Contract and Third Cause of Action for Negligence.
