ORDER

Pending before the Court is Plaintiff’s Request for Withdrawal of Complaint (Doc.

#25). No answer or motion for summary judgment has been filed by Defendants. Plaintiff’s

Motion for Withdrawal of Complaint will, therefore, be treated as a notice of voluntary

dismissal pursuant to Rule 41(a)(1) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. See Wilson v.

City of San Jose, 111 F.3d 688, 692 (9th Cir. 1997) (“a plaintiff has an absolute right to

voluntarily dismiss his action prior to service by the defendant of an answer or a motion for

summary judgment”).

IT IS ORDERED that the reference of this case to the Magistrate Judge is

withdrawn.
