DISCUSSION

17

According to the Nevada Department of Corrections (“NDOC”) inmate database,

18

Jason M. Jones (“Plaintiff”) is no longer incarcerated. However, Plaintiff has not filed an

19

updated address with this Court. The Court notes that pursuant to Nevada Local Rule of

20

Practice IA 3-1, a “pro se party must immediately file with the court written notification of

21

any change of mailing address, email address, telephone number, or facsimile number.

22

The notification must include proof of service on each opposing party or the party’s

23

attorney. Failure to comply with this rule may result in the dismissal of the action, entry

24

of default judgment, or other sanctions as deemed appropriate by the court.” Nev. Loc.

25

R. IA 3-1. This Court grants Plaintiff thirty (30) days from the date of entry of this order to

26

file his updated address with this Court. If Plaintiff does not update the Court with his

27

current address within thirty (30) days from the date of entry of this order, the Court will

28

dismiss this action without prejudice.

1

Additionally, the Court denies the application to proceed in forma pauperis for

2

prisoners (ECF No. 1) as moot because Plaintiff is no longer incarcerated. The Court

3

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

4

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