IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS
WESTERN DIVISION
DWIGHT ALEXANDER
v.

PLAINTIFF
Case No. 4:13CV00084 KGB

CITY OF LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS;
FLETCHER SMITH; GREG MASSANELLI 1

DEFENDANTS

ORDER OF DISMISSAL
Two motions are currently pending before the Court. First, plaintiff Dwight Alexander
has submitted an application to proceed in forma pauperis (Dkt. No. 1). Second, defendants City
of Little Rock, Fletcher Smith, and Greg Messeny, who should be identified in this action as
Greg Massanelli, have moved to dismiss Mr. Alexander’s complaint (Dkt. No. 4), and Mr.
Alexander has responded (Dkt. No. 6).
In response to the motion to dismiss, Mr. Alexander states many things, including the
following: “Wherefore the plaintiff, with the court’s indulgence the plaintiff will acquiesce to
the defendant’s [sic] motion to dismiss and end the complaint here” (Dkt. No. 6, at 3). Based on
this statement, the Court understands that Mr. Alexander acquiesces to defendants’ motion to
dismiss and wishes to have his complaint against defendants dismissed.
Therefore, the motion to dismiss is granted (Dkt. No. 4), and Mr. Alexander’s application
to proceed in forma pauperis is moot (Dkt. No. 1). This case is dismissed without prejudice.
Judgment will be entered accordingly.

1

Based on the parties’ pleadings (Dkt. No. 4, at 1 n.1; Dkt. No. 6), the Clerk of Court is directed to change the
name of defendant Greg Messeny to Greg Massanelli.

SO ORDERED this the 13th day of May, 2013.
