THALIA RAMOS-ARREDONDO, CASE NO. 1:19-CV-1130 AWI BAM

Plaintiff ORDER CLOSING CASE IN LIGHT OF STIPULATION FOR DISMISSAL WITH v. PREJUDICE

FCA US LLC and DOES 1-10 inclusive, (Doc. No. 11) Defendants

On January 2, 2020, the parties filed a stipulation to dismiss this case with prejudice, but with a request for the Court to retain jurisdiction. See Doc. No. 11. The stipulation cites Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(2), which deals with dismissals by court order. See id. However, because the stipulation is signed by all parties, the Court interprets the stipulation as governed by Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(1). Rule 41(a)(1), in relevant part, reads:

(A) . . . the plaintiff may dismiss an action without a court order by filing: (i) a notice of dismissal before the opposing party serves either an answer or a motion for summary judgment; or (ii) a stipulation of dismissal signed by all parties who have appeared. . . . (B) Unless the notice or stipulation states otherwise, the dismissal is without prejudice. Dismissals under Rule 41(a)(1)(A), when properly filed, are effective immediately and do not require a court order/court approval. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1); Yesh Music v. Lakewood Church, 727 F.3d 356, 362 (5th Cir. 2013); Commercial Space Mgmt. Co. v. Boeing Co., 193 F.3d I 1074, 1077 (9th Cir. 1999); Wilson v. City of San Jose, 111 F.3d 688, 692 (9th Cir. 1997); In re 2, | Wolf, 842 F.2d 464, 466 (D.C. Cir. 1989). Here, again all parties who have appeared in this case have signed the stipulated dismissal. See Doc. No. 49. Because all appearing parties have signed the stipulated dismissal with prejudice, this case has terminated automatically. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A); Yesh Music, 727 F.3d at 362; Commercial Space, 193 F.3d at 1077. Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Clerk is to CLOSE this case in light of the

parties’ filed and properly signed Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(i1) Stipulation Of Dismissal with prejudice, but as stipulated by the parties, the Court will retain jurisdiction in order to enforce, if necessary, the of the settlement agreement. Dated: _ January 3, 2020 : _-SENIOR DISTRICT JUDGE
