ORDER DIRECTING THE CLERK TO UPDATE THE DOCKET AND TERMINATE THE DONALD J. SCRANTON AS A DEFENDANT
(Doc. 4)
JENNIFER L. THURSTON, Magistrate Judge.
On July 27, 2018, Plaintiffs filed a "Voluntary Dismissal," indicating they were dismissing the claims against Donald J. Scranton without prejudice. (Doc. 4) Pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 41(a)(1)(A)(i), the plaintiff may an action or claims "without a court order by filing . . . a notice of dismissal before the opposing party serves either an answer or a motion for summary judgment." Because Mr. Scranton has not filed an answer or motion for summary judgment, the dismissal was effective without an order of the Court. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(2).
Accordingly, the Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to update the docket and terminate Donald J. Scranton, as a defendant in the action.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
