ORDER CLOSING THE MATTER

v.

(Doc. 9)

PARIS & PARIS LLP, et al.,

Defendants.

On May 15, 2015, Plaintiff filed a notice of voluntary dismissal with prejudice pursuant to Federal

18

Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(1)(A)(i). (Doc. 9) In relevant part, Rule 41(a)(1)(A) provides as

19

follows:

21

[A] plaintiff may dismiss an action with 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.

22

Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A). "The plaintiff may dismiss some or all of the defendants, or some or all

23

of his claims, through a Rule 41(a)(1) notice," and the dismissal "automatically terminates the action

24

as to the defendants who are the subjects of the notice." Wilson v. City of San Jose, 111 F.3d 688,

25

692 (9th Cir. 1997). Because Plaintiff filed a notice of dismissal of before an answer or motion for

26

summary judgment was filed by Defendants, this case has terminated. Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(i).
