Filing 34

ORDER SUBSTITUTING RESPONDENT AND CHANGING PETITIONER'S ADDRESS OF RECORD - Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that Jeff Noble, Warden of the Madison Correctional Institution be SUBSTITUTED as the Respondent in this case. The Clerk is ORDERED to change Petitioners address of record to Madison Correctional Institution 1851 State Route 56 P.O. Box 740London, Ohio 43140. Although Petitioner began using this address as early as July 2017 (See ECF No. 12 ), he has never formally notified th e Clerk of a change of address nor, apparently, ever thought that the delay in his receiving mail might have to do with this lack of notice as opposed to failures of prison personnel to comply with policy.

Case No. 3:17-cv-151
District Judge Walter H. Rice
Magistrate Judge Michael R. Merz

JEFF NOBLE, WARDEN,
Madison Correctional Institution,
:
Respondent.

ORDER SUBSTITUTING RESPONDENT AND CHANGING
PETITIONER’S ADDRESS OF RECORD

On January 3, 2018, on Petitioner’s Motion, the Court ordered Respondent to produce the
relevant inmate mail logs in an attempt to understand why, if it is true, that Petitioner’s receipt of
mail from Respondent and from the Court has been tardy (ECF No. 32). In response, Principal
Assistant Attorney General Watson, who represents Respondent in this case, advises that Petitioner
was transferred during the summer of 2017 from the Trumbull Correctional Institution to the
Madison Correctional Institution (ECF No. 33, PageID 1676).
Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that Jeff Noble, Warden of the Madison Correctional
Institution be SUBSTITUTED as the Respondent in this case. The Clerk is ORDERED to change
Petitioner’s address of record to
Madison Correctional Institution
1851 State Route 56
P.O. Box 740
London, Ohio 43140.
Although Petitioner began using this address as early as July 2017 (See ECF No. 12), he has never

formally notified the Clerk of a change of address nor, apparently, ever thought that the delay in his
receiving mail might have to do with this lack of notice as opposed to failures of prison personnel to comply
with policy.

January 4, 2018.
