ORDER OF DISMISSAL AS TO JOHN DOES 20 AND 22, ONLY
Blackburn, J.
The matter is before me on Plaintiff's Notice of Settlement and Voluntary Dismissal With Prejudice of John Does 20 and 22 Only [#40] filed May 30, 2012. After reviewing the notice and the file, I conclude that the notice should be approved and plaintiff's claims against defendants John Does 20 and 22 should be dismissed with prejudice.
"[#40]" is an example of the convention I use to identify the docket number assigned to a specific paper by the court's electronic case filing and management system (CM/ECF). I use this convention throughout this order.
THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED as follows:
1. That Plaintiff's Notice of Settlement and Voluntary Dismissal With Prejudice of John Does 20 and 22 Only [#40] filed May 30, 2012, is APPROVED;
2. That plaintiff's claims against defendants John Does 20 and 22 are DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE; and
3. That defendants John Does 20 and 22 are DROPPED as a named parties to this action, and the case caption is amended accordingly.
Dated May 30, 2012, at Denver, Colorado.
