Case No. 2:21-cv-00419-KJD-VCF

I.

DISCUSSION
According to the Nevada Department of Corrections (“NDOC”) 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 until Friday, September 24, 2021, to file his updated address with this
Court. If Plaintiff does not update the Court with his current address by Friday, September
24, 2021, this case will be subject to dismissal without prejudice.
Additionally, the Court denies the application to proceed in forma pauperis for
prisoners (ECF No. 1) as moot because Plaintiff is no longer incarcerated. The Court
now directs Plaintiff to file an application to proceed in forma pauperis by a non-prisoner
by Friday, September 24, 2021, or pay the full filing fee of $402.
II.

CONCLUSION
For the foregoing reasons, it is ordered that Plaintiff will file an updated address

with the Clerk of the Court by Friday, September 24, 2021.
It is further ordered that Plaintiff’s application to proceed in forma pauperis for
