OPINION

By prior orders (Doc. Nos. 41, 46, 48, 52, & 55),

defendant Town of Collinsville was to notify the court by

December 30, 2005, as to whether its single-member

district plan had been precleared. Collinsville has now

submitted a motion to dismiss, representing that both

Collinsville and the plaintiffs agree that it is

unnecessary for the town to redistrict and, thus, that

preclearance by the United States Justice Department is

unnecessary. Collinsville also agrees to pay the

Case 2:87-cv-01187-MHT Document 57 Filed 01/20/06 Page 1 of 2
plaintiffs’ attorneys fees of $ 500, and the town

represents that the plaintiffs do not object to the

dismissal of this case.

An appropriate judgment will be entered.

DONE, this the 20th day of January, 2006.

 /s/ Myron H. Thompson
