PER CURIAM:

OPINION

¶1

Michael McCoy Jones appeals from the district court's order granting McCoy's motion to voluntarily dismiss this case without prejudice pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a). A plaintiff may not appeal an order granting a motion to voluntarily dismiss a case without conditions. Unioil, Inc. v. E.F. Hutton & Co., 809 F.2d 548, 555 (9th Cir. 1986), cert. denied, 484 U.S. 822 (1987), and cert. denied, 484 U.S. 823 (1987). Accordingly, we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis, deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal, and dismiss the appeal. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED
