The parties have stipulated to dismiss the action with each side to bear their own fees and

18

costs. (Doc. 27) Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 41(a)(1)(A)(ii) permits the plaintiff to dismiss an

19

action without a court order “by filing . . . a stipulation of dismissal signed by all parties who have

20

appeared.” Because all parties who have appeared in the action signed the stipulation (Doc. 79), it

21

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

Accordingly, the Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to close this action.
