This matter comes before the Court on plaintiffs’ “Motion To Dismiss Northwest Trustee

17

Services Without Prejudice.” Dkt. # 13. Having reviewed the parties’ memoranda and the

18

balance of the record; the Court finds as follows.

19

Plaintiffs bring this action alleging that defendants, including Northwest Trustee Services,

20

Inc. (“NWTS”), have unlawfully attempted to sell real property belonging to plaintiffs Gregorio

21

and Maria Diaz pursuant to an invalid deed of trust recorded in September 2005 (Snohomish

22

County Auditor’s File No. 200509220838). Dkt. # 1 (Compl.). Plaintiff has moved to

23

voluntarily dismiss NWTS from this action without prejudice. Dkt. # 13. NWTS objects that its

24

dismissal should be with prejudice, suggesting that its only involvement with the property in

25

dispute is through a different deed of trust (Snohomish County Auditor’s File No.

26

200509220837). Dkt. # 14.
