REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION

On May 17, 2017, the court entered an order requiring Plaintiff Jonathan W. Mundo to file an

14

amended application to proceed in forma pauperis or to pay the filing fee in this case. (Order (ECF

15

No. 2).) Plaintiff’s deadline for doing so was June 16, 2017. (Id. at 2.) Plaintiff was advised that

16

failure to comply with the court’s order would result in a recommendation that his case be dismissed.

17

(Id.) Plaintiff has not taken any action in this case since the court’s order dated May 17, 2017, and

18

therefore appears to have abandoned the case. Additionally, the court’s order (ECF No. 2) was

19

returned as undeliverable (see ECF No. 3), and Plaintiff has not filed a notice of change of address as

20

required by Local Rule IA 3-1 and Local Special Rule 2-2, which is an independent grounds for

21

dismissal under the court’s local rules.

IT IS THEREFORE RECOMMENDED that Plaintiff Jonathan W. Mundo’s case be
dismissed without prejudice.
