ORDER OF DISMISSAL

United States District Court
For the Northern District of California
No. C 13-4769 SI (pr)
LUIS MARTINEZ; et al.,
11
Defendants.
/

Mail that was sent on November 13, 2013 to plaintiff at the county jail address he
14
provided was returned to the court undelivered on November 29, 2013, marked "not in custody -
15
return to sender." Docket # 7. Plaintiff has not provided any address other than the one to which
16
the undeliverable mail was sent. More than sixty days have passed since the mail was first
17
returned to the court undelivered. Plaintiff has failed to comply with Local Rule 3-11(a) which
18
requires that a party proceeding pro se must "promptly file with the Court and serve upon all
19
opposing parties a Notice of Change of Address specifying the new address" when his address
20
changes. Local Rule 3-11(b) allows the court to dismiss a complaint without prejudice when
21
mail directed to a pro se party is returned as not deliverable and the pro se party fails to file a
22
notice of his current address within sixty days of the return of the undelivered mail. For the
23
foregoing reasons, this action is dismissed without prejudice because plaintiff failed to keep the
24
court informed of his address in compliance with Local Rule 3-11(a).
25
The clerk shall close the file.
26
IT IS SO ORDERED.
