IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

NEHEMIAH JEFF FISHER,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-05-1145 LKK DAD P

vs.

DOCTOR RAUL MISCHIU, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

On January 4, 2006, plaintiff filed a notice of change of address. Plaintiff’s notice

includes a request that the Clerk of the Court notify defendants’ counsel of plaintiff’s address

change.

Plaintiff has not complied with the court’s August 18, 2005 order, which provides

that “[a] notice of change of address must be properly served on other parties.” (Order filed Aug.

18, 2005, at 5.) In addition, now that defendants Mischiu and Webber have appeared in this

action by filing an answer to plaintiff’s complaint, every document plaintiff submits to the court

for consideration must be served on defendants’ counsel. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 5; Local Rule 5-

135. A party who cannot serve a document electronically must serve it by U.S. mail. Every

document plaintiff mails to the court for filing must include a properly completed proof of

service that identifies the document served, states the date on which an accurate copy of the

address of the attorney to whom the copy was mailed.1 See Local Rule 5-135(b) and (c).

Plaintiff will be required to mail a notice of change of address to defendants’

counsel at the address shown on defendants’ answer filed December 9, 2005. Plaintiff must also

file a properly completed proof of service showing that he mailed a notice of change of address to

defendants’ counsel.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Plaintiff’s January 4, 2006 request for service by the Clerk of the Court is

denied;

2. Plaintiff is granted fifteen days from the date of this order to serve a notice of

change of address on defendants’ counsel and to file a properly completed proof of service. 

Plaintiff is cautioned that any subsequent failure to include a properly completed proof of service

with a document submitted for filing may result in the imposition of sanctions.

DATED: January 12, 2006.
