Case No. 1:15-cv-00026-NONE-SAB (PC)
ORDER DIRECTING THE CLERK OF COURT TO
CLOSE THIS ACTION PURSUANT TO THE
PARTIES’ STIPULATION FOR VOLUNTARY
DISMISSAL
(ECF No. 246)

Plaintiff Jeffrey P. Perrotte is appearing in forma pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to
42 U.S.C. § 1983.
On May 11, 2021, the parties filed a stipulation to dismiss this action with prejudice pursuant
to Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(ii) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. (ECF No. 246.)

Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(ii) provides in pertinent part that, “the plaintiff may dismiss an action without

22

a court order by filing . . . a stipulation of dismissal signed by all parties who have appeared. A

23

voluntary stipulation to dismiss an action pursuant to Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(ii) automatically terminates the

24

action without operation of a court order. Black Rock City, LLC v. Pershing Cty. Bd. of Comm’rs,

27

and dated a stipulation to dismiss this action, and filed it with the Court.
