ORDER

On December 20, 2010, Plaintiff Mark Steven Parker, who is confined in the Arizona

State Prison Complex-Florence (ASPC-Florence), filed a pro se pleading entitled “Order To

Cause For A[n] Injunction For Writ Of Habeas Corpus By A Person In State Custody”

(Doc. 1), which the Clerk of Court docketed as a Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus

(Petition). Plaintiff also filed a pleading entitled “Injunction For a Writ Of Habeas Corpus

By A Person In State Custody” (Doc. 2) and an “Application To Proceed In Forma Pauperis

By A Prisoner (Habeas)” (Doc. 3). 

By Order filed January 4, 2011 (Doc. 5), the Court dismissed without prejudice, with

leave to amend, Plaintiff’s Petition (Doc. 1), which the Court construed as a civil rights

Complaint brought pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff was given 30 days from the filing

date of the Order to file a first amended complaint that complied with the Order. 

The Court’s Order also denied without prejudice Plaintiff’s pleading entitled

“Injunction For a Writ Of Habeas Corpus By A Person In State Custody” (Doc. 2) and

“Application To Proceed In Forma Pauperis By A Prisoner (Habeas)” (Doc. 3). Plaintiff

was given 30 days from the filing date of the Order to either pay the $350.00 filing fee or file

a completed “Application To Proceed In Forma Pauperis By A Prisoner Civil (NonHabeas)” and a certified six-month trust account statement from the Arizona Department of

Correction’s Central Office. To date, Plaintiff has not yet complied with the Court’s January

4, 2011 Order.

I. Motion for Leave to Amend and Application to Proceed

On January 3, 2011, Plaintiff filed a “Motion For Leave To File An Amended

Complaint To Injunction For Writ Of Habeas Corpus” (Doc. 6) and a second “Application

To Proceed In Forma Pauperis By A Prisoner (Habeas)” (Doc. 7). Neither of these

pleadings came to the attention of the Court before the Court’s January 4, 2011 Order

(Doc. 5) was filed.

Based on the reasoning in the Court’s January 4, 2011 Order, the Court will deny

without prejudice as moot both Plaintiff’s “Motion For Leave To File An Amended

Complaint To Injunction For Writ Of Habeas Corpus” (Doc. 6) and second “Application To

Proceed In Forma Pauperis By A Prisoner (Habeas)” (Doc. 7). 

Plaintiff is advised that he must still comply with the Court’s January 4, 2011 Order

in a timely manner.

II. Warnings

A. Address Changes

Plaintiff must file and serve a notice of a change of address in accordance with Rule

83.3(d) of the Local Rules of Civil Procedure. Plaintiff must not include a motion for other

relief with a notice of change of address. Failure to comply may result in dismissal of this

action.

B. Copies

Plaintiff must submit an additional copy of every document that he files for use by the

Court. See LRCiv 5.4. Failure to comply may result in the filing being stricken without

further notice to Plaintiff.

C. Possible Dismissal

Plaintiff is warned that failure to timely comply with every provision of this Order and

the Court’s January 4, 2010 Order (Doc. 5), including these warnings, may result in dismissal

of this action without further notice. See Ferdik v. Bonzelet, 963 F.2d 1258, 1260-61 (9th

Cir. 1992) (a district court may dismiss an action for failure to comply with any order of the

Court). 

IT IS ORDERED:

(1) Plaintiff’s “Motion For Leave To File An Amended Complaint To Injunction

For Writ Of Habeas Corpus” (Doc. 6) and second “Application To Proceed In Forma

Pauperis By A Prisoner (Habeas)” (Doc. 7) are denied without prejudice as moot.

(2) If Plaintiff fails to comply with the Court’s January 4, 2011 Order (Doc. 5)

within 30 days from the filing date of that Order, the Clerk of Court must, without further

notice, enter a judgment of dismissal of this action without prejudice.

DATED this 11th day of January, 2011.
