ORDER CLOSING CASE
(Doc. 15)

18

The parties have stipulated to dismiss this case with prejudice. (Doc. 15) The stipulation relies

19

upon Rule 41 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, under which “the plaintiff may dismiss an action

20

without a court order by filing . . . a stipulation of dismissal signed by all parties who have appeared.”

21

Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A)(ii).

22

Because all parties who have appeared in the action signed the stipulation, it “automatically

23

terminate[d] the action.” Wilson v. City of San Jose, 111 F.3d 688, 692 (9th Cir. 1997). Accordingly,

24

the Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to close this action.
