MEMORANDUM OPINION

Frederick Rivers [“Rivers”], an indigent state inmate, initiated this 42 U.S.C. § 1983

complaint challenging actions taken against him during his confinement at the Ventress Correctional

Facility. The order of procedure entered in this case specifically directed Rivers to immediately

inform the court of any change in his address. Order of May 16, 2008 - Court Document No. 4 at

6. 

This court recently determined that the plaintiff no longer resides at the last address he had

provided for service. As is clear from the foregoing, Rivers has failed to comply with the directives

of the orders entered by this court regarding his provision of a current address and this case cannot

properly proceed in his absence. The court therefore concludes that this case is due to be dismissed.

A separate order will accompany this memorandum opinion.

Done this 3 day of August, 2010. rd
