On April 23, 2014, I dismissed pro se plaintiff Gregory Banks’s complaint and granted

14

him leave to file an amended complaint within 30 days. Dkt. No. 19. Mr. Banks has not filed an

15

amended complaint.

16

On August 14, 2014, I ordered Mr. Banks to file an amended complaint by September 3,

17

2014, or, if he did not file an amended complaint by September 3, 2014, to show cause by that

18

date why this matter should not be dismissed with prejudice for failure to prosecute. Dkt. No. 23.

19

Instead, on August 18, 2014, Mr. Banks filed a request for voluntary dismissal without prejudice,

20

per Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41. Dkt. No. 24. Mr. Banks states that he “is seeking to

21

resolve this case and it appears that a favorable result can be obtained.” Mr. Banks’s request is

22

GRANTED. This case is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
