complaint correcting those deficiencies, and warned plaintiff that failure to file an amended

20

complaint would result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed. ECF No. 3.

This action, in which plaintiff is proceeding in propria persona, was referred to the
undersigned under Local Rule 302(c)(21). See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1).
2

Although it appears from the file that plaintiff’s copy of the order was returned, plaintiff
was properly served. It is the plaintiff’s responsibility to keep the court apprised of his current
address at all times. Pursuant to Local Rule 182(f), service of documents at the record address of
the party is fully effective.
