ORDER DIRECTING THE CLERK TO UPDATE
THE DOCKET AND TERMINATE JOSE
GONZALES AS A DEFENDANT IN THE
ACTION
(Doc. 12)
16
17
Debra Anglin filed a Notice of Dismissal as to defendant Jose Gonzales without prejudice.
18
(Doc. 12) Pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 41(a)(1)(A)(i), “the plaintiff may dismiss an action without a court
19
order by filing . . . a notice of dismissal before the opposing party serves either an answer or a motion
20
for summary judgment.” Because Mr. Gonzales has not filed an answer or motion for summary
21
judgment, the dismissal was effective without an order of the court. See Fed. R. Civ. Pro. 41(a)(2);
22
Wilson v. City of San Jose, 111 F.3d 688, 692 (9th Cir. 1997).
23
24
Accordingly, the Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to updated the docket and terminate Jose
Gonzales as a defendant in the action.
