Plaintiff Joseph Murray has dismissed all of the defendants in his own case without
prejudice. Plaintiff’s case was originally filed as part of a single complaint with multiple
plaintiffs, all of whom asserted various individual claims (“gang complaint”). Doc 1. All the
plaintiffs identified in this gang complaint were given the same case number, 3:08-cv-04461MMC, but their cases were severed and re-filed individually in the Eastern District of
Pennsylvania (“EDPA”). This Court maintained the severance and ordered that plaintiff Joseph
Murray be allowed to proceed under Case No. 3:08-cv-04461-MMC; all other plaintiffs in the
original gang complaint will receive new, distinct case numbers upon remand from the EDPA.
See, Doc. 52. Accordingly, the dismissal of entire case under Case No. 3:08-cv-04461-MMC
applies only to the case of plaintiff Joseph Murray.
