I. BACKGROUND

Christopher Condee (“Plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma 

pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. ' 1983. Plaintiff filed the Complaint 

commencing this action on July 9, 2014. (ECF No. 1.) 

On February 12, 2015, the Court dismissed the Complaint for failure to state a claim, 

with leave to amend. (ECF No. 10.) On March 5, 2015, Plaintiff filed the First Amended 

Complaint. (ECF No. 11.)

On March 30, 2016, the Court issued an order requiring Plaintiff to either (1) file a 

Second Amended Complaint or (2) notify the Court that he stands on the First Amended 

Complaint, subject to dismissal for failure to state a claim, within thirty days. (ECF No. 14.) 

The thirty day deadline passed, and Plaintiff failed to comply with or otherwise respond to the 

Court’s order.1

The United States Postal Service returned the Court’s order to the Court on April 20, 2016 as 

undeliverable. (Court Record.) A notation on the envelope indicated “Undeliverable, Released.” (Id.) However, 

Plaintiff had not notified the Court of any change in his address. Absent such notice, service at a party’s prior 

address is fully effective. Local Rule 182(f).

On May 9, 2016, findings and recommendations were entered, recommending that this 

action be dismissed, with prejudice, based on Plaintiff=s failure to state a claim upon which 

relief may be granted under § 1983. (ECF No. 15.) Plaintiff was granted thirty days in which 

to file objections to the findings and recommendations. (Id.) The thirty-day deadline passed, 

and Plaintiff did not file objections or otherwise respond to the findings and recommendations.2

On July 21, 2016, Plaintiff filed a notice of change of address to the California Medical 

Facility in Vacaville, California. (ECF No. 16.) In light of the fact that Plaintiff has notified 

the Court of his new address, the Court shall vacate the findings and recommendations of May 

9, 2016, and direct the Clerk to re-serve Plaintiff with the Court’s order of March 30, 2016 at 

Plaintiff’s new address. 

III. CONCLUSION

Based on the foregoing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The findings and recommendations entered on May 9, 2016, are VACATED;

2. The Clerk is DIRECTED to re-serve Plaintiff with the Court’s order of March 

30, 2016 at Plaintiff’s new address (ECF No. 14); and
