ORDER
Before the Court is the United States' Motion to Unseal Case and Dismiss.
In the motion, the Government requests that this case be unsealed and the Verified
Amended Complaint for Forfeiture in Rem be dismissed. Pursuant to Federal Rule
of Civil Procedure 41(a)(1)(A)(i), a plaintiff may dismiss an action by filing "a notice
of dismissal before the opposing party serves either an answer or a motion for
summary judgment." Because no party claiming an interest in the Defendant
Property has filed either an answer or a motion for summary judgment, the
Government's request is GRANTED and this action is DISMISSED WITHOUT
PREJUDICE.
The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to UNSEAL and CLOSE this case.
SO ORDERED this kday of

DBEY WOOD, CHIEF JUDGE
STATES DISTRICT COURT
RN DISTRICT OF GEORGIA
