Order of Dismissal
Before the Court is plaintiff’s motion to dismiss with prejudice, stating the parties have
resolved all issues.1 Plaintiff adds a request that the Court retain jurisdiction over the terms of
the settlement agreement. In response, defendants state that retention of jurisdiction by the Court
was not one of the agreed terms of the settlement agreement and that there is no reason for the
Court to retain jurisdiction because no further action is required of defendants.
The Court finds plaintiff’s motion to dismiss with prejudice [docket entry 10] should be
and is hereby granted. Plaintiff’s complaint is dismissed with prejudice.
DATED this 24th day of July, 2012.

UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

1

Defendants filed a motion for summary judgment, arguing plaintiff’s complaint is barred by a
settlement agreement. In his motion to dismiss, plaintiff says defendants’ motion is moot. Because the
Court dismisses plaintiff’s complaint with prejudice and does not retain jurisdiction, defendants’ motion
[docket entry 7] is moot.
