AMENDED ORDER

THIS MATTER is before the Court on Plaintiff’s Motion to Amend Case Caption, (Doc.
No. 41), and Motion to File Under Seal, (Doc. No. 43).
Plaintiff filed a Stipulation of Dismissal, signed by all the parties who have appeared,
voluntarily dismissing from this action Defendant Lawrence, whom Plaintiff was never able to
serve, and Officers John Doe 2 and 3, whom Plaintiff was never able to identify and serve. (Doc.
No. 40); see Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(l)(A)(ii). The Motion to Amend the Case Caption to remove the
Defendants Lawrence and Officers John Doe 2 and 3, to which Defendants Wall, Peguese, and
Parsons have consented, will be granted to the extent that the action will be terminated as to these
parties.
Plaintiff filed a Motion to Amend or Correct the Motion for Protective Order that was
subsequently withdrawn. (Doc. Nos. 42, 45). The Memorandum in Support of the Motion, (Doc.
No. 44), contains sensitive information and therefore the Motion to Seal will be granted even
though the Motion to Amend is now moot.
IT IS ORDERED that
(1)

Plaintiff’s Motion to Amend Case Caption, (Doc. No. 41), is GRANTED to the

1

extent that the action will be terminated as to Defendants Lawrence and Officers
John Doe 2 and 3.
(2)

Plaintiff’s Motion to File Under Seal, (Doc. No. 43), is GRANTED.

(3)

The Clerk of Court is respectfully requested to terminate Defendants Lawrence and
Officer Jon Doe 2 and 3.
