California Dismiss Civil Case

In California, a Request for Dismissal is a formal legal document filed by the plaintiff (the party who initiated the lawsuit) to voluntarily terminate or dismiss a civil case. This document is typically filed with the court when the plaintiff decides to abandon their claim or no longer wishes to pursue the legal action against the defendant.
Once the court grants the Request for Dismissal, the case is closed, and the lawsuit is officially ended. It's essential to note that a dismissal can be with or without prejudice. A dismissal with prejudice means the plaintiff cannot refile the same claim, whereas a dismissal without prejudice allows the plaintiff to refile the case in the future if they choose to do so.
