MEMORANDUM OPINION

Plaintiff, proceeding pro se, filed this complaint on May 24, 2007. On May 30, 2007

the court entered an order of procedure which instructed Plaintiff, among other things, to

inform the court of any change in his address. (Doc. No. 4.) The order cautioned Plaintiff

that failure to comply with the court’s requirement that it be notified of any change in his

address would result in a recommendation that this case be dismissed. (Id.) 

The court recently ascertained that Plaintiff is no longer housed at the Ventress

Correctional Facility located in Clayton, Alabama, which is the last address for service the

court has on file for Plaintiff. Accordingly, on March 2, 2009 the court entered an order

directing Plaintiff to provide the court with his present address on or before March 12, 2009.

(Doc. No. 28.) Plaintiff was cautioned that his failure to comply with the court's March 2,

2009 order would result in a recommendation that this case be dismissed. (Id.) On March

10, 2009 Plaintiff’s copy of the court’s March 2, 2009 order was returned to the court marked

as undeliverable. 

It is clear that Plaintiff is no longer incarcerated at the Ventress Correctional Facility

and that he has not provided this court with his current address. The undersigned, therefore,

concludes that this case shall be dismissed without prejudice for Plaintiff's failures to comply

with the orders of the court and to prosecute this action.

A separate order follows.

Done, this 12 day of March 2009. th
