On November 30, 2015, the parties filed a stipulation for dismissal of this action with
17
prejudice. See Doc. No. 63. The stipulation is made pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure
18
41(a)(1)(A)(ii). See id.

Rule 41(a)(1), in relevant part, reads:
(A) . . . the plaintiff may dismiss an action without 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. . . . (B) Unless the notice or stipulation states otherwise, the
dismissal is without prejudice.
25
Dismissals under Rule 41(a)(1)(A), when properly filed, are effective immediately and do not
26
require a court order/court approval. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1); Yesh Music v. Lakewood
27
Church, 727 F.3d 356, 362 (5th Cir. 2013); Commercial Space Mgmt. Co. v. Boeing Co., 193 F.3d

Wolf, 842 F.2d 464, 466 (D.C. Cir. 1989).
Here, all parties who have appeared in this case have signed the stipulated dismissal.
Because all parties have signed the stipulated dismissal with prejudice, this case has terminated
automatically. See id.

Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Clerk shall CLOSE this case in light of the
parties’ properly filed and signed Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(ii) Stipulation Of Dismissal With Prejudice.
