PATRICK COLLINS, INC. Plaintiff, v. JOHN DOES 1-2, 4-6, and 8-12, Defendants.
Judge Robert E. Blackburn
ORDER OF DISMISSAL AS TO JOHN DOES 1, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11 AND 12
WITHOUT PREJUDICE
Blackburn, J.
The matter is before me on the Plaintiff's Notice of Voluntary Dismissal Without Prejudice of John Does 1, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11 and 12 [#30] filed August 1, 2012. After reviewing the notice and the record, I conclude that the notice should be approved and that plaintiff's claims against defendants John Does 1, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11 and 12 should be dismissed without prejudice.
"[#30]" 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 Voluntary Dismissal Without Prejudice of John Does 1, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11 and 12 [#30] filed August 1, 2012, is APPROVED;
2. That plaintiff's claims against defendants John Does 1, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11 and 12 are DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE; and 3. That defendants John Does 1, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11 and 12 are DROPPED as a named parties to this action, and the case caption is amended accordingly.
Dated August 2, 2012, at Denver, Colorado.
BY THE COURT:
