UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Plaintiff Edwin Garcia is appearing pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil rights action 

pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c), Plaintiff consented to the jurisdiction of 

the United States Magistrate Judge on May 23, 2016. Local Rule 302.

On October 14, 2016, the Court dismissed Plaintiff’s complaint for failure to state a claim 

under section 1983 and ordered Plaintiff to file an amended complaint within thirty days. 28 U.S.C. § 

1915A; 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e). 

More than thirty days have since passed, and Plaintiff has not complied with or otherwise 

responded to the Court’s order. Indeed, on November 14, 2016, the United States Postal Service 

returned the October 14, 2016 order as undeliverable. A notation on the envelope indicates that 

Plaintiff has paroled. However, Plaintiff has 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). As a result, 

there is no pleading on file which sets forth any claims upon which relief may be granted.
