Case No. 2:17-cv-01960-APG-GWF

I.

DISCUSSION
According to the Federal Bureau of Prisons’ inmate database, Plaintiff is no longer

incarcerated. However, Plaintiff has not filed an updated address with this Court. The
Court notes that pursuant to Nevada Local Rule of Practice IA 3-1, a “pro se party must
immediately file with the court written notification of any change of mailing address, email
address, telephone number, or facsimile number. The notification must include proof of
service on each opposing party or the party’s attorney. Failure to comply with this rule
may result in the dismissal of the action, entry of default judgment, or other sanctions as
deemed appropriate by the court.” Nev. Loc. R. IA 3-1. This Court grants Plaintiff thirty
(30) days from the date of entry of this order to file his updated address with this Court.
If Plaintiff does not update the Court with his current address within thirty (30) days from
the date of entry of this order, the Court will dismiss this action without prejudice.
Additionally, the Court denies the application to proceed in forma pauperis for
prisoners (ECF No. 4) as moot because Plaintiff is no longer incarcerated. The Court

1

now directs Plaintiff to file an application to proceed in forma pauperis by a non-prisoner

2

within thirty (30) days from the date of this order or pay the full filing fee of $400.
