*** DISREGARD ENTERED WRONG CASE *** ORDER OF DISMISSAL WITH PREJUDICE re #35 Stipulation of Dismissal. Signed by Honorable Susan O. Hickey on January 7, 2022. (cnn) Modified on 1/7/2022 NEF regenerated (cnn).
IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
WESTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS
EL DORADO DIVISION
DOYLE LAWSON
v.
PLAINTIFF
Case No. 1:20-cv-1024
JOHN H. BROWN, JR., and
BLAIR LOGISTICS, LLC
DEFENDANT
ORDER
Before the Court is the parties’ Stipulation of Dismissal. ECF No. 35. The parties ask that
the Court dismiss this case with prejudice, with each party bearing its own costs and fees.
An action may be dismissed by “a stipulation of dismissal signed by all parties who have
appeared.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A)(ii). “Caselaw concerning stipulated dismissals under Rule
41(a)(1)(A)(ii) is clear that the entry of such a stipulation of dismissal is effective automatically
and does not require judicial approval.” Gardiner v. A.H. Robins Co., 747 F.2d 1180, 1189 (8th
Cir. 1984). Thus, Plaintiff’s claims against Defendants were effectively dismissed when the
parties filed the instant stipulation. However, this order issues for the purpose of maintaining the
Court’s docket.
This case is hereby DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE. If any party desires that the terms
of any settlement be a part of the record therein, those terms should be reduced to writing and filed
with the Court within thirty (30) days of the entry of this judgment. The Court retains jurisdiction
to vacate this order upon cause shown that any such settlement has not been completed and further
litigation is necessary.
IT IS SO ORDERED, this 7th day of January, 2022.
