Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A)(ii). None of these exceptions apply here. A joint stipulation of dismissal is “self-executing” upon proper filing. Love v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.,

(11th Cir. 2017). Because the parties have filed a joint stipulation of dismissal signed by all remaining parties, the case was dismissed immediately upon filing of the stipulation.
