UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

PERRY ROMANO, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

SACRAMENTO 

POLICEDEPARTMENT, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:14-cv-2470 AC P 

ORDER 

 Plaintiff, a former state prisoner, proceeds pro se and in forma pauperis with a civil rights 

action filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. A recent order of this court served on plaintiff’s 

address of record was returned as undeliverable. (See ECF No. 25, and docket notation entered 

Jan. 29, 2016.) Nevertheless, plaintiff partially complied with the court’s order by submitting 

documents for the U.S. Marshal to serve process on sole defendant Redlich. However, these 

documents are incomplete – neither the USM-285 form nor the summons include defendant’s 

street address (so that service of process can be made on defendant), and neither document 

includes plaintiff’s address (so that defendant can respond to the complaint). Plaintiff does not 

need to submit further copies of the complaint – the court has received the copies previously sent 

by plaintiff. 

 Further, it appears that plaintiff has failed to comply with Local Rule 183(b), which 

requires that a party appearing in propria persona promptly inform the court of any address

change, and authorizes dismissal of an action without prejudice if a notice of address change has 

not been provided within sixty-three days after the return of a court order.1 Pursuant to Local 

Rule 182(f), service of documents at the record address of the party is fully effective. 

 Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 

1. The Clerk of Court is directed to send plaintiff, at his current address of record, one 

blank summons and one blank USM-284 form. 

2. Within thirty days after the filing date of this order, plaintiff shall submit to the court 

the fully completed summons and USM-285 form for service of process on defendant Redlich, 

together with the attached Notice of Submission without prejudice. 

3. Failure to return these documents within the specified time period will result in a 

recommendation that this action be dismissed without prejudice. 

DATED: February 4, 2016

 Local Rule 183(b) provides: 

A party appearing in propria persona shall keep the Court and 

opposing parties advised as to his or her current address. If mail 

directed to a plaintiff in propria persona by the Clerk is returned by 

the U.S. Postal Service, and if such plaintiff fails to notify the Court 

and opposing parties within sixty-three (63) days thereafter of a 

current address, the Court may dismiss the action without prejudice 

for failure to prosecute.
