Opinion
Case No. 13-CV-1391
05-07-2014
CHARLES EDWARD BUTTS, Plaintiff, v. KENOSHA COUNTY DETENTION CENTER and KENOSHA COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT, Defendants.
DECISION AND ORDER
Plaintiff has filed a request to dismiss this case, see Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a), and that he not be required to pay the filing fee. The filing fee has already been assessed although plaintiff has not submitted any partial payments yet. Because this case is at such an early stage, in addition to voluntary dismissal of this action, I will grant plaintiff's request to not have to pay the filing fee.
THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that this case is DISMISSED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the court's Order of April 16, 2014, granting plaintiff's petition for leave to proceed in forma pauperis and ordering the Kenosha County Sheriff to collect from plaintiff's prisoner trust account the $350.00 filing fee is STRICKEN.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that a copy of this order be sent to the Kenosha County Sheriff.
Dated at Milwaukee, Wisconsin, this 7th day of May, 2014.
