IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KIFA MUHAMMAD,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-02-0006 LKK CMK P

vs.

SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

On November 10, 2005, plaintiff filed a notice of change of address. That

document was not served on defendants. Plaintiff is advised that every document submitted to

the court for consideration must be served on defendants. Fed. R. Civ. P. 5. Plaintiff is required

to serve all documents in this action conventionally in accordance with the relevant provisions of

Fed. R. Civ. P. 5. See Local Rule 5-135(b). Since an attorney has filed a document with the

court on behalf of defendants, documents submitted by plaintiff must be served on that attorney

and not on the defendant. Fed. R. Civ. P. 5(b)(1). Conventional service is usually accomplished

by mailing a copy of the document to the attorney’s address of record. See Fed. R. Civ. P.

5(b)(2)(B). Plaintiff must include with every document filed in this action a certificate stating

the date an accurate copy of the document was mailed to defendants’ attorney and the address to

which it was mailed. See Local Rule 5-135(b) and (c).
