ORDER
On March 24, 2016, I ordered service for, among others, Defendant Tate. (Doc. No. 8.)
Summons for this Defendant was returned unexecuted. (Doc. No. 15.) If Plaintiff’s claims against
Defendant Tate are to proceed, he must provide a viable address for him within thirty (30) days of
this Order’s entry. See Lee v. Armontrout, 991 F.2d 487, 489 (8th Cir. 1993) (per curiam) (holding
that it is a pro se plaintiff’s responsibility to provide proper addresses for defendants).
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that Plaintiff should provide a viable address at which
service for Defendant Tate may be attempted within thirty (30) days of this Order’s entry. If he fails
to do so, I will recommend Tate’s dismissal without prejudice.
So Ordered this 13th day of April, 2016.
