UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

WAYNE RICHARDSON,

Plaintiff,

v.

C. JURCAK, et al.,

Defendants.

 /

CASE NO. 1:02-CV-05672-OWW-LJO-P

ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF’S MOTION

TO COMPEL AS UNTIMELY

(Doc. 70)

ORDER DIRECTING CLERK’S OFFICE TO

CHANGE PLAINTIFF’S ADDRESS OF

RECORD TO CSP-CALIPATRIA AND RESERVE DOCUMENTS 63, 66, 68, AND 69,

INCLUDING LOCAL RULE 16-281 AS SET

FORTH IN DOCUMENT 69

On August 24, 2006, plaintiff filed a motion to compel. Pursuant to the Court’s order of

March 21, 2006, the deadline for the completion of all discovery, including filing motions to compel,

was June 2, 2006. Plaintiff’s motion to compel is untimely and shall be denied on that ground.

The caption to plaintiff’s motion to compel indicates that plaintiff’s current address is

California State Prison-Calipatria. However, plaintiff has not filed a notice of change of address

with the Court and his address of record is High Desert State Prison. Per California Department of

Corrections and Rehabilitation personnel, plaintiff transferred on February 10, 2006. Upon review

of the record, the Court notes that plaintiff mentioned his transfer in the body of his request for an

extension of time filed on March 17, 2006. This is insufficient notice, as neither the Clerk’s Office

nor the Court scan incoming filings for changes of address buried in the text. Address changes

require a notice of change of address.

The Court will direct the Clerk’s Office to update plaintiff’s address of record and re-serve

the four orders filed since plaintiff’s transfer. Plaintiff is admonished that it is his responsibility to

file a notice of change of address each time he changes institution. 

Based on the foregoing, it is HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Plaintiff’s motion to compel, filed August 24, 2006, is DENIED as untimely;

2. The Clerk’s Office shall change plaintiff’s address of record to California State

Prison-Calipatria; and

3. The Clerk’s Office shall re-serve documents 63, 66, 68, and 69, including the copy

of Local Rule 16-281 as set forth in 69, on plaintiff at CSP-Calipatria. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
