UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

RON STEPHEN REDHEAD,

Plaintiff,

v.

MERCY HOUSING,

Defendant.

Case No. 16-cv-03254-PJH 

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

Re: Dkt. Nos. 2, 5, 6

On June 21, 2016, pro se plaintiff Ron Stephen Redhead made a “motion to 

dismiss without prejudice.” Dkt. 6. Although basis of the motion is not entirely clear, the 

court construes the filing as a request to dismiss the case pursuant to Federal Rule of 

Civil Procedure 41(a)(1)(A)(i). Dismissal without prejudice is proper as the defendant has 

not yet answered the complaint. Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A)(i). 

Accordingly, the case is DISMISSED, without prejudice. Plaintiff’s motion to 

proceed in forma pauperis is VACATED as moot. The court’s prior order referring this 

case to Judge Gonzalez Rogers is VACATED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: June 23, 2016
