UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

VICTOR M. SAMANIEGO,

Plaintiff,

vs.

THE BANK OF NEW YORK MELLON, et 

al.

Defendants.

CASE NO. 19cv982-LAB (NLS)

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

On June 10, 2019, the Court ordered Plaintiff Victor Samaniego to show cause 

why this case shouldn’t be dismissed for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction. Dkt. 4. If he 

was unable to show cause, the Court urged, he should dismiss the case instead of 

responding. Taking the Court up on its offer, Samaniego now moves to dismiss the case 

without prejudice “in order to seek legal assistance.” Because no Defendant has yet filed 

an answer, Samaniego may unilaterally dismiss the case without approval from the Court. 

Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A). This action is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. The 

clerk is directed to close the case. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: June 28, 2019
