Abstract
For a von Neumann algebra it is shown that the set of primitive ideals containing a fixed maximal ideal of the center is sequentially closed in the order topology defined on the set of all ideals containing the maximal ideal. As a corollary, it is shown that every ideal generated by a sequence of elements of a von Neumann algebra and a maximal ideal of the center is either primitive or simple modulo a primitive ideal.
