(Doc. 17.) This Stipulation is 20 signed by all parties who have appeared in this action.1 (See id. at 2.) As such, Plaintiffs have 21 voluntarily dismissed Defendant County of Stanislaus with prejudice pursuant to Federal Rule of 22 Civil Procedure 41(a)(1)(A)(ii). The Court therefore DIRECTS the Clerk to terminate Defendant 23 County of Stanislaus on the docket for this case. 24 25 IT IS SO ORDERED. 26 27 28 1 The Complaint names numerous additional Defendants, (see Doc. 10), who did not sign the Stipulation, (see Doc. 17). However, only County of Stanislaus has appeared at this time. As such, the absence of signatures in the Stipulation for the remaining Defendants does not preclude voluntary dismissal under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(1)(A)(ii). See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A)(ii) (“[T]he plaintiff may dismiss an action without a court order by filing . . . a stipulation of dismissal signed by all parties who have appeared.”). 1 Dated: 2 May 18, 2017 /s/ Sheila K.
