C2013-1082B Piste Clerk Monique RaTupun, In Tue Disrricr Court PLAINTIFF v. 207™ JUDICIAL DISTRICT DAVID MISCAVIGE, RELIGIOUS TECHNOLOGY CENTER, CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY INTERNATIONAL, STEVEN GREGORY SLOAT, MONTY DRAKE, DAVE LuBow a/K/A DAVID J. LABOW, AND an on eon ton ean un eon eon ED BRYAN, 8 § DEFENDANTS § ComaL County, TEXAS UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR ENTRY OF NONSUIT WITHOUT PREJUDICE TO THE HONORABLE JUDGE OF SAID COURT: Plaintiff in pro se respectfully requests that the court enter the attached proposed Order Granting Notice of Nonsuit Without Prejudice. In support of this motion, Plaintiff shows the Court as follows: 1, While performing its exit strategy from this lawsuit my former lawyers made two things abundantly clear to me: a) my lawsuit is not worth it financially for former counsel or anyone to continue to litigate, and b) my husband and I have effectively achieved the primary purpose that the lawsuit was originally intended to serve by our own independent effort. Since former counsel’s January 2016 withdrawal it has become evident that their own stated primary purpose for litigating the case has also been achieved. 2. While I have come to accept former counsel’s conclusions “a” and “b” above, the record before the 207" District Court and Third District Court of Appeals clearly demonstrates my complaint to be meritorious. I do not harbor any intention to reinstitute the case in the future. However, out of an abundance of caution I ask that the court enter nonsuit without prejudice. That caution is informed by the Texas Supreme Court in Epps v. Fowler (Supreme Court of Texas No. 10-0283): Today, we consider whether a defendant is a prevailing party entitled to attorney's fees when the plaintiff nonsuits a claim without prejudice. We hold that such a defendant is not a prevailing party unless the court determines, on the defendant's motion, that the plaintiff took the nonsuit in order to avoid an unfavorable judgment. We also hold that, because a nonsuit with prejudice immediately alters the legal relationship between the parties by its res judicata effect, a defendant prevails when the plaintiff nonsuits with prejudice. Supreme Court of Texas No. ‘10-0283, Christopher N. EPPS and Laura L. Epps, Petitioners, v. Bruce FOWLER, Jr. and Stephanie L. Fowler, Respondents. Thave conferred with counsel for Defendants and they do not oppose this motion. WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Plaintiff prays that the Court enter an Order granting notice of nonsuit without prejudice. A proposed Order is appended hereto. Respectfully submitted, /s/ Monique Rathbun Monique Rathbun in pro se | | | | CERTIFICATE OF CONFERENCE I certify that on 10 May, 2016, I conferred with counsel for Defendants regarding the subject matter of this Motion and that Defendants do not oppose this Motion.
