CIVIL NO. 13-723-GPM

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
MURPHY, District Judge:
On August 19, 2013, after mail from the Court to Plaintiff Adrian Rogers had been returned
as undeliverable, Plaintiff was ordered to provide the Court with his current address no later than
September 16, 2013 (Doc. 8). Plaintiff was explicitly warned that his failure to do so would result
in the dismissal of his case (Doc. 8). Plaintiff’s deadline to notify this Court of his change of
address has passed, and Plaintiff has failed to do so.
As a result, this action is DISMISSED without prejudice, for failure to comply with an
Order of this Court. FED. R. CIV. P. 41(b). See generally Ladien v. Astrachan, 128 F.3d 1051
(7th Cir. 1997); Johnson v. Kamminga, 34 F.3d 466 (7th Cir. 1994). Plaintiff’s obligation to pay
the filing fee for this action was incurred at the time the action was filed, thus the filing fee of
$350.00 remains due and payable. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(b)(1); Lucien v. Jockisch, 133 F.3d 464,
467 (7th Cir. 1998). The Clerk’s Office is DIRECTED to close this case.
