effective. 

 More than thirty days have passed since the filing of the court’s order. Plaintiff has not 

filed an amended complaint, submitted a further notice of change of address, or otherwise 

communicated with the court; it appears that plaintiff has abandoned this case. 

 Accordingly, for good cause shown, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this action is 

dismissed without prejudice pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b). The Clerk of 

Court is directed to close this case.
