ORDER OF DISMISSAL

Plaintiff filed a pro se civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On May 28,

2010, Plaintiff filed a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis. That same day, the Court

sent a notification to Plaintiff informing him that his application was insufficient. The Court

provided a copy of the in forma pauperis application, along with a return envelope, and a

notification that the case would be dismissed if Plaintiff failed to pay the fee or file a completed

application with supporting documentation within thirty days. To date, Plaintiff has not

submitted a completed application nor paid the filing fee.

On June 7, 2010, mail sent to Plaintiff by the Court was returned to the Clerk of the court

with a notation that it was undeliverable as addressed because the inmate was not in custody. As

of the date of this order, Plaintiff has not updated his address with the Court nor submitted any

further pleadings in this case.

changes while an action is pending must promptly file a notice of change of address specifying

the new address. See L.R. 3-11(a). The Court may, without prejudice, dismiss a complaint

when: (1) mail directed to the pro se party by the court has been returned to the Court as not

deliverable, and (2) the Court fails to receive within sixty days of this return a written

communication from the pro se party indicating a current address. See L.R. 3-11(b). More than

sixty days have passed since the mail sent to Plaintiff by the Court was returned as

undeliverable. The Court has not received any notice from Plaintiff updating his address. 

Accordingly, the instant complaint is DISMISSED without prejudice. The Clerk of the

court shall terminate all pending motions and close the file. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
