Defendants. )

 )

At docket 48, the magistrate judge recommended that this case be dismissed

without prejudice for plaintiff’s failure to keep the court advised of his current address. 

Two days later plaintiff filed a notice of change of address. The policies favoring

resolution of disputes on the merits and efficient administration of justice weigh heavily

against dismissing the case. A briefing schedule has been fixed for defendants’ motion

to dismiss at docket 47. Under these circumstances, this court elects to reject the

recommendation at docket 48. This case will proceed on the merits. As has been

noted in a prior order, the motion at docket 47 is on referral to Hon. James F. Metcalf for

a report and recommendation.

DATED this 22nd day of July 2013.
