No. 1:15-cv-00337-SKO

ORDER DIRECTING CLERK OF 

COURT TO ADMINISTRATIVELY 

CLOSE CASE

On June 15, 2015, Plaintiff filed a notice of voluntary dismissal with prejudice pursuant 

to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(1)(A)(i). (Doc. 15.) 

In relevant part, Rule 41(a)(1)(A) provides as follows:

[A] plaintiff may dismiss an action with 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). "The plaintiff may dismiss some or all of the defendants, or some 

or all of his claims, through a Rule 41(a)(1) notice," and the dismissal "automatically 

terminates the action as to the defendants who are the subjects of the notice." Wilson v. City of

San Jose, 111 F.3d 688, 692 (9th Cir. 1997). Because Plaintiff filed a notice of dismissal of 

before an answer or motion for summary judgment was filed by Defendants, this case has 

terminated. Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(i).

Accordingly IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court is to 

administratively close this case.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
