appeared.” A stipulation to dismiss is effective without court action to terminate a case (Id.) 

Plaintiff filed a complaint on August 24, 2013. In response, Defendants filed a Motion to 

Dismiss on April 14, 2014. Plaintiff then filed Amended Complaint on May 5, 2014. Defendants 

Moved to Dismiss the Amended Complaint on June 19, 2014. The court granted Defendants’ 

Motion to Dismiss in part, with respect to the First and Fourth Amendment claims against both the 

County and the individual defendants. The time to amend since passed. With the dismissal of the 

First and Fourth Amendment claims, the only remaining claim is a state law claim alleging 

violation of the FEHA. No federal claims remain at issue, and accordingly, the parties have jointly 

decided to voluntarily dismiss the case in Federal Court, and instead file the state law claim in 

state court.

In accordance with this the parties agree as follows:

1) To dismiss the above captioned case without prejudice; 

2) Plaintiff will have 30 days from dismissal of this action to file the remaining claim in 

state court, during which time Defendant agrees that any limitations period will be 

tolled.
