ORDER STRIKING PLAINTIFF’S VOLUNTARY DISMISSAL
On July 21, 2011, Plaintiff Jasmine Guy Jordan filed on the docket of the abovecaptioned case a stipulation of voluntary dismissal of Defendant City of Detroit, pursuant
to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(1)(A)(ii). However, such stipulation must be
“signed by all parties who have appeared.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A)(ii). As both
Defendant City of Detroit and Defendant Wayne County have appeared, the stipulation
must also be signed by the City Of Detroit. Additionally, the stipulation should be
submitted electronically to the court with a proposed order, rather than filed directly on
the docket. For these reasons, the court will strike the stipulation. Plaintiff may seek
the concurrence of Wayne County and the City of Detroit and resubmit the stipulation of
dismissal, if appropriate, or file a motion to dismiss. Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff’s voluntary dismissal [Dkt. # 21] is hereby
STRICKEN from the docket of this court.
