Plaintiff Redentor C. Castrence (“Plaintiff”) is a former state prisoner proceeding pro

19 se in a civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983.

This action was initiated on December 26, 2012. (ECF No. 1.) On January 28,

21 2013, Plaintiff filed a motion with the Court requesting that mailings in this matter be sent
22 to an individual who is not an attorney but who is acting as Plaintiff’s legal advisor. (ECF
23 No. 6.)
24

Pursuant to Local Rule 183, pro se parties are required to keep the Court appraised

25 of their current addresses. Parties representing themselves “must appear personally or
26 by courtesy appearance by an attorney admitted to the Bar of this Court and may not
27 delegate that duty to any other individual, including husband or wife, or any other party on
28 the same side appearing without an attorney.” Local Rule 183(a). This rule precludes

Accordingly, Plaintiff’s motion requesting that the address on file with the Court be

3 changed to the address of an individual who is not an attorney is DENIED.
