Plaintiff Michael Maldonado filed this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 on

18

June 2, 2015. (Doc. No. 1.) He is proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis. (Doc. No. 5.) On

19

August 17, 2015, he filed his currently operative second amended complaint. (Doc. No. 11.) On

20

March 7, 2016, the assigned magistrate judge issued findings and recommendations

21

recommending that defendant’s motion to dismiss the second amended complaint be granted.

22

(Doc. No. 29.) The findings and recommendations contained notice that any written objections

23

were due within fourteen days after service. (Id. at 6.) No objections were filed.

24

However, on March 28, 2016, the court received notice of a change of address from

25

plaintiff indicating that he had been transferred to Salinas Valley State Prison. (Doc. No. 30.)

26

Accordingly, in order to ensure that plaintiff received proper notice, the court will direct the Clerk

27

of the Court to re-serve the March 7, 2016 findings and recommendations on plaintiff at his new

28

address of record and provide plaintiff with fourteen days from that re-service to file his written

recommendations (Doc. No. 29) on plaintiff at his new address of record at:

5

Salinas Valley State Prison
P.O. Box 1020
Soledad, CA 93960

The Clerk of the Court is directed to reserve the March 7, 2016 findings and

2)

Plaintiff will be granted fourteen days from the date of re-service of the findings and

8

recommendations to file his written objections to those findings and recommendations,

if any.
