IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF FEDERAL CLAIMS INFORMATION SYSTEMS & NETWORKS CORPORATION, ) ) ) Plaintiff, ) ) v. ) ) THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, ) ) Defendant. )
No. 04-748C (Judge Damich)
PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR VOLUNTARY DISMISSAL WITHOUT PREJUDICE Plaintiff, Information Systems & Networks Corporation ("plaintiff or ISN"), by its undersigned attorneys, moves this Honorable Court for an Order pursuant to Rule 41(a)(2) dismissing the Complaint without prejudice. The voluntary dismissal is necessary because the CDA claim which provides the basis of the Complaint was based on the research and analysis of plaintiff's former Chief Financial Officer, Charles Bonuccelli. However, Mr.
Bonuccelli has since left ISN's employment, and is not available to either assist plaintiff with its theory or provide the underlying analysis. Plaintiff has no other
employee with the knowledge of the claim and requisite experience necessary to support the claim. Plaintiff has
not been able to reproduce Mr. Bonuccelli's accounting work, and therefore has lost its primary source of assistance with the claim at this time. Plaintiff seeks a voluntary
dismissal without prejudice, in the event that plaintiff is able to re-assemble the bases for the claim.

Defendant is not prejudiced by the voluntary dismissal without prejudice. No discovery has taken place in this
case, and defendant's only participation thus far has been in filing its dispositive motion. On the other hand, ISN
would be prejudiced by the inability to re-file its pleading in order to proceed on the merits of its claims. WHEREFORE, for the reasons stated, Information Systems & Networks Corporation requests a voluntary dismissal of the Complaint without prejudice. Dated: October 14, 2004 Respectfully submitted, SINGER & ASSOCIATES, PC
