Case No. 2:16-cv-13914
Hon. George Caram Steeh

et al.,
Defendants.
_____________________________/
ORDER DISMISSING ACTION UNDER
FEDERAL RULE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE 41(A)(1)
This is a pro se civil rights action filed under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The
complaint was filed without payment of the filing fee or an application to
proceed in forma pauperis. The Court ordered Plaintiff to correct the filing
deficiency. Plaintiff filed a letter response indicating that he did not file the
complaint, and he does not know who did.
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(1) provides that “the plaintiff
may dismiss an action without a court order by filing; (i) a notice of
dismissal before the opposing party serves either an answer or a motion for
summary judgment; or (ii) a stipulation of dismissal signed by all parties
who have appeared.” FED. R. CIV. P. 41(a)(1)(A)(i), (ii). Because Plaintiff

indicates that he never initiated this case, the Court will grant Plaintiff’s
request to dismiss the action.
Accordingly, the Court orders that the complaint is voluntarily
dismissed without prejudice pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure
41(a)(1)(A)(i).
IT IS SO ORDERED.
