UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SALVADOR MOSQUEDA,

Plaintiff,

v.

SEARS, ROEBUCK AND CO., 

Defendants.

Case No. 1:14-cv-001891--- JLT

ORDER GRANTING STIPULATION TO 

CLOSE THE MATTER

(Doc. 17)

On May 4, 2016, the parties filed a stipulation to dismiss the matter. (Doc. 17) The 

stipulation relies upon Rule 41 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, under which “the plaintiff 

may dismiss an action without a court order by filing: (i) a notice of dismissal before the opposing 

party serves either an answer or a motion for summary judgment; or (ii) a stipulation of dismissal 

signed by all parties who have appeared.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A). Once the parties file such a 

notice, a Court order is not required to dismiss the case. Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(ii); Wilson v. City 

of San Jose, 111 F.3d 688, 692 (9th Cir. 1997). Thus, the Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to close 

this action in light of the notice of dismissal without prejudice filed and properly signed pursuant to 

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

IT IS SO ORDERED.
