ORDER OF DISMISSAL

Plaintiff, a state prisoner at Correctional Training Facility - Soledad (“CTFSoledad”), filed a letter on July 18, 2013, which initiated this civil rights action under 42

U.S.C. § 1983. (Docket No. 1.) The action was dismissed on October 17, 2013, due to

Plaintiff's failure to file a proper complaint in the time provided. (Docket No. 13.) On

November 5, 2013, in the interest of justice, the Court granted Plaintiff an opportunity to

have the matter reopened upon filing of a proper complaint. (Docket No. 16.) On

December 6, 2013, Plaintiff filed a complaint seeking an “emergency” preliminary

injunction prohibiting prison officials at CTF-Soledad from transferring Plaintiff to

another facility. (Docket No. 17.) On August 21, 2014, the Court ordered Plaintiff to file

with the Court a notice of his current address and his continued intent to prosecute. 

(Docket No. 18.) On October 17, 2014, Plaintiff filed notice of his intent to prosecute and

sought to file an amended complaint. (Docket No. 19.) In response, on April 3, 2015, the

Order of Dismissal

P:\PRO-SE\EJD\CR.13\03348Simpson_dism LR3-11.wpd 2

Court vacated the October 17, 2013 order of dismissal, reopened the action and granted

Plaintiff leave to file an amended complaint. (Docket No. 21.) On April 21, 2015, the

Court’s April 3, 2015 order reopening the case was returned as undeliverable with a

notation that the Plaintiff was paroled on November 9, 2014. (Docket No. 22.) As of the

date of this order, Plaintiff has not filed a notice of change of address or submitted any

further pleadings in this case.

Pursuant to Northern District Local Rule 3-11 a party proceeding pro se must

promptly file a notice of change of address while an action is pending. See L.R. 3-11(a). 

The Court may, without prejudice, dismiss a complaint when: (1) mail directed to the pro

se party by the Court has been returned to the Court as not deliverable, and (2) the Court

fails to receive within sixty days of this return a written communication from the pro se

party indicating a current address. See L.R. 3-11(b). 

More than sixty days have passed since the mail addressed to Plaintiff was

returned as undeliverable. The Court has not received a notice from Plaintiff of a new

address. Accordingly, the instant civil rights action is DISMISSED without prejudice

pursuant to Rule 3-11 of the Northern District Local Rules. 

The Clerk shall terminate any pending motions.
