This matter comes before the Court on the Report and Recommendation (“R&R”) of
the Honorable J. Richard Creatura, United States Magistrate Judge (Dkt. 4) and Plaintiff
Daniel Mulholland’s (“Mulholland”) motion to voluntarily dismiss this action (Dkt. 5).
On June 14, 2011, Mulholland filed a motion to proceed in forma pauperis. Dkt. 1.
On June 20, 2011, Judge Creatura recommended that the motion be denied because
Mulholland had sufficient funds to pay the filing fee. Dkt. 4. On July 1, 2011, Mulholland
filed a motion to voluntarily dismiss this action. Dkt. 5.
The Court has considered the R&R, Mulholland’s motion, and the remaining record
and hereby GRANTS Mulholland’s motion (Dkt. 5) and this action is DISMISSED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
DATED this 19th day of July, 2011.
