The court reviewed the parties' joint stipulation of dismissal with prejudice. The court ordered that the action be dismissed with prejudice in its entirety.

What the court decidedThe model
Dismissal of the action with prejudice based on the parties' joint stipulation.
“The action, in its entirety, is hereby DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.”
agree with court
The court correctly applied Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(1)(A)(i), which allows a plaintiff to dismiss an action without a court order by filing a notice of dismissal signed by all parties who have appeared, provided the action has not been served with a counterclaim or a motion for summary judgment. The court cited Wilson v. City of San Jose, which confirms that a joint stipulation of dismissal with prejudice is effective upon filing and satisfies the requirements of Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(i). The decision follows directly from the procedural rule and the parties' agreement.

The order itself: sound — The order is procedurally correct and cites the appropriate Ninth Circuit authority for the proposition that a joint stipulation of dismissal with prejudice is effective upon filing under Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(i). The reasoning is sufficient for a procedural dismissal based on stipulation.
