Whited v. Lincoln Life Assurance Company of Boston

Filing 24

ORDER: The parties have filed a Joint Stipulation for Dismissal (Doc. No. 23) stating that they no longer desire to litigate this action. Under Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A)(ii), the Stipulation sufficed to dismiss this action without any action on the part of the Court. Because the parties have stated that the dismissal is with prejudice, the dismissal in fact is with prejudice. Accordingly, the Court acknowledges that this action has been DISMISSED with prejudice, and the Clerk is directed to close the file. This Order shall constitute final judgment for purposes of Fed. R. Civ. P. 58. Signed by District Judge Eli J. Richardson on 11/30/2020. (am)
