ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFFS' MOTION FOR PARTIAL DISMISSAL OF CLAIMS AGAINST CREDIT BUREAUS.
ROSANNA MALOUF PETERSON, District Judge.
BEFORE THE COURT is Plaintiff's Motion for Partial Dismissal of Claims Against Credit Bureaus, ECF No. 89. The Court has reviewed the motion, the record, and is fully informed.
Plaintiffs' motion seeks to dismiss only some of the claims they allege against three Defendants: Equifax Information Services, Experian Information Solutions, and TransUnion LLS. See ECF No. 89. The Court understands the motion to be referring to their First Amended Complaint, as the numbered paragraphs enumerated in the motion correspond to those listed under those numbers in the First Amended Complaint.1 Although the motion does not seek to dismiss these three Defendants entirely, Plaintiffs attempt to clarify by stating that
Plaintiff's [sic] did not intend nor do they desire to pursue any liability action against the named credit bureaus in claims 25, 31, 51, 53, 55, 57, 59, and 61 as they were too far removed from the transactions alleged by the Plaintiffs' [sic] that they had not chosen a vehicle and therefore there was nothing to finance or they were only the recipients of the false information. These claims and only these claims against the credit bureaus should be dismissed with prejudice. These claims as stated against the other named defendants in the claims are not to be dismissed.
ECF No. 89 at 2. The Court is unable to determine how these three Defendants are unlike the other Defendants in this case, or why they should be kept in this matter at all if they are "too far removed from the transactions alleged by Plaintiffs." Id. However, Plaintiffs are requesting that these claims be dismissed with prejudice, so the Court finds good cause to grant this voluntary dismissal of the specified portions of these claims.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT:
1. Plaintiffs' Motion for Partial Dismissal of Claims Against Credit Bureaus, ECF No. 89, is GRANTED.
2. The claims brought against Defendants Equifax Information Services, Experian Information Solutions, and TransUnion LLS in paragraphs 25, 31, 51, 53, 55, 57, 59, and 61 of the First Amended Complaint are DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.
The District Court Clerk is directed to enter this Order and provide copies to counsel and pro se parties.
