ORDER STRIKING PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR

DISPOSITION OF CASE AS DUPLICATIVE

(Doc. 86)

CLERK'S OFFICE TO SEND PLAINTIFF A COPY

OF CM/ECF DOCKET and DOC. 85

Plaintiff, TheodoreBritton Yates (“Plaintiff”), is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma

pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On March 21, 2012, Plaintiff filed a 

"Motion for Disposition or Outcome of Case" in which he requested notice as to the disposition or

outcome of this case and advice as to his options regarding appeal. (Doc. 84.) This motion was granted

in part and denied in part. (Doc. 85.) When served, the order was returned as undeliverable since

Plaintiff was no longer an inmate at Avenal State Prison. 

On August 29, 2012, Plaintiff filed a motion for disposition of the case which duplicates the

motion which he filed on March 21, 2012. (Doc. 86.) In this motion, Plaintiff indicates that he is "once

again in the custody of the Stanislaus County Sheriff in Modesto, California." (Id.) However, this

comment does not suffice as a notice of change of address. Plaintiff has not complied with his duties

as a litigant to update his address with the Court -- the docket reflects his residence as Avenal State 1

Prison. The prior order on Plaintiff's first motion for disposition was returned as undeliverable. As a

courtesy, the Court is directing the Clerk's Office to send a copy of this orderto Plaintiff at the Stanislaus

County Jail. 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT, Plaintiff's motion for disposition of case, filed

August 29, 2012 (Doc. 86), is HEREBY STRICKEN as duplicative and the Clerk's Office is directed

to print copies of the docket on CM/ECF along with copies of the Order which issued on August 22,

2012 (Doc. 85) and serve them with this order on Plaintiff both at Avenal State Prison and at the

Stanislaus County Jail.2

IT IS SO ORDERED.
