Plaintiff Demarene Coleman filed this civil-rights lawsuit to redress constitutional

10 violations that he claims he suffered while incarcerate Lovelock Correctional Center, but she
11 now seeks to voluntarily dismiss it.1 Federal Rule of Civil Procedure (FRCP) 41(a)(1) permits a
12 plaintiff to dismiss an action without a court order by filing “a notice of dismissal before the
13 opposing party serves either an answer or a motion for summary judgment.” 2 Because no
14 responsive pleading has been filed in this case, I grant the motion and dismiss this action without
15 prejudice under FRCP 41(a)(1).
16

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the motion for voluntary dismissal [ECF No. 10] is

17 GRANTED, and this case is dismissed without prejudice. The Clerk of Court is directed to
18 ENTER JUDGMENT accordingly and CLOSE THIS CASE.
