No. C 13-0723 RMW (PR)
ORDER OF DISMISSAL

14
15

On February 15, 2013, Plaintiff, a California state prisoner, filed a letter with the court,

16

which initiated these proceedings. (Doc. No. 1.) On March 4, 2013, plaintiff filed a letter

17

stating that he did not intend to file a complaint, and requesting that the action be dismissed.

18

(Doc. No. 5.)

19

Plaintiff may voluntarily dismiss his complaint with or without order of this court. See

20

Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A), (a)(2). Because no opposing party has been served, plaintiff’s letter

21

requesting to dismiss these proceedings is construed as a “notice of dismissal,” and requires no

22

order from the court. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A)(I). Accordingly, this action is

23

DISMISSED. The clerk of the court shall terminate all pending motions and deadlines and close

24

the file. The clerk is also directed to send an electronic copy of plaintiff’s original letter (Doc.

25

No. 1), and a copy of this order to the courtroom deputy of Judge Thelton Henderson.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
