MEMORANDUM
The parties have filed a Joint Stipulation of Dismissal with Prejudice as to All
Consolidated Cases (Doc. 31). Parties may dismiss a lawsuit voluntarily by filing a

stipulation of dismissal signed by all parties who have appeared, except in suits
involving class or derivative actions, unincorporated associations, and receiverships.
Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A)(ii). None of these exceptions apply in this case.
Because the parties have filed a joint stipulation of dismissal signed by all
parties who have appeared, the case was dismissed, with prejudice, immediately
upon filing. Love v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., 865 F.3d 1322, 1325 (11th Cir. 2017)
(holding that a joint stipulation of dismissal is “self-executing” and dismisses the
case upon proper filing)). The Clerk of Court is therefore DIRECTED to close this
case.
DONE and ORDERED this December 30, 2019.
