1 Although it appears from the docket that this court’s November 30, 2015 order granting 

petitioner an extension of time to file his opposition was returned to the court, it is the petitioner’s 

responsibility to keep the court apprised of his current address at all times. Pursuant to Local 

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