MEMORANDUM
On November 17, 2014, plaintiff was ordered to pay the full filing fee or submit
the documents necessary to proceed in forma pauperis. Plaintiff's copy of that order,
which was mailed to him at his last known address of Sullivan County Detention Center,
was returned undelivered on November 26, 2014. Subsequent mail sent to plaintiff at
that address has likewise been returned undelivered.

Plaintiff bears the burden of

prosecuting his action, which includes informing the Court of his correct mailing address,
and he has not done so.
Accordingly, this action will be DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE, sua
sponte, for failure to prosecute and to comply with the orders of this Court. Fed. R. Civ.
P. 41(b); Jourdan v. Jabe, 951 F.2d 108 (6th Cir. 1991). The Court will CERTIFY that
any appeal from this action would not be taken in good faith and would be totally
frivolous. See Fed. R. App. P. 24.
AN APPROPRIATE ORDER WILL ENTER.

United States District Judge
