On October 9, 2013, the court’s order was served upon Plaintiff at his address of record at Kern Valley
State Prison in Delano, California. (Doc. 11.) On October 10, 2013, Plaintiff filed a notice of change of address to
the California Health Care Facility (CHCF) in Stockton, California. (Doc. 12.) On November 13, 2013, the Clerk
re-served the order upon Plaintiff at CHCF. (Court Docket.) On December 3, 2013, the U.S. Postal Service again
returned the order to the court as undeliverable. A notation on the envelope indicated that Plaintiff was
“discharged.” Plaintiff has not advised the court of another change of address. Absent such notice, service at a
party=s prior address is fully effective. Local Rule 182(f).
