IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

WESTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

FORT SMITH DIVISION

ANNIE OPHELIA JEFFERY PLAINTIFF

v. Civil No. 06-2164 

PAUL SMITH, Detective, Fort 

Smith Police Department; JUDGE 

JAMES MARSCHEWSKI;

STEPHEN TABOR, Prosecuting

Attorney; and the FORT SMITH

POLICE DEPARTMENT DEFENDANTS

REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION OF THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE

On September 13, 2006, the plaintiff filed this civil rights complaint. She proceeds pro

se and in forma pauperis.

On November 11, 2006, the court entered an order (Doc. 6) directing the plaintiff to

complete, sign, and return a questionnaire that would be filed as an addendum to her complaint.

The addendum was to be returned by November 28, 2006 (Doc. 6). 

The questionnaire was mailed to the plaintiff at the Sebastian County Detention Center.

Plaintiff was incarcerated there when she filed this lawsuit.

On November 16, 2006, the court’s order and attached questionnaire were returned as

undeliverable. The envelop contained a notation that Jeffery was no longer at the Sebastian

County Detention Center. When Jeffery was booked in, she provided officials at the detention

center with a home address. The court therefore entered a change of address using the address

Jeffery provided to detention center personnel (Doc. 7). 

The clerk was directed to re-mail to the plaintiff any pleadings or correspondence which

may have been returned as undeliverable. A docket entry indicates the court’s order and

addendum were re-mailed to the plaintiff. On December 6, 2006, the court’s order and attached

addendum were once again returned as undeliverable. 

There is no other address available for the plaintiff. The plaintiff has not contacted the

court since she filed her complaint in September. All documents sent by the court to the plaintiff

at two separate addresses since November 6th have been returned as undeliverable. I therefore

recommend that this case be dismissed based on the plaintiff’s failure to prosecute the case and

her failure to obey an order of the court. Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b).

Jeffery hasten days from receipt of the report and recommendation in which to file

written objections pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). The failure to file timely objections

may result in waiver of the right to appeal questions of fact. Jeffery is reminded that

objections must be both timely and specific to trigger de novo review by the district court.

DATED this 13th day of December 2006.
