MEMORANDUM ADOPTING REPORT AND
RECOMMENDATION OF UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Came on for consideration the report of the United States Magistrate Judge in this action,
this matter having been heretofore referred to the Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636.
On August 23, 2022, the Magistrate Judge entered proposed findings of fact and a recommendation
(the “Report”) (Dkt. #24) that Plaintiff Teri Anna Roland’s (“Plaintiff”) claims in this action be
dismissed without prejudice.
The Report was mailed to Plaintiff’s address by certified mail, return receipt requested;
however, the United States Postal Service was unable to deliver the Report, which was returned to
the Court and marked “Return to Sender - Unable to Forward.” See Dkt. #25. Plaintiff did not
provide the Court with an updated address for service, as required. See LOCAL R. CV-11(d) (“A
pro se litigant . . . is responsible for keeping the clerk advised in writing of his or her current
physical address”). Accordingly, the Court has been unable to serve Plaintiff with the Report.
The Court has nevertheless considered the Report and is of the opinion that the findings
and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge are correct. The Court adopts the Magistrate Judge’s
report as the findings and conclusions of the Court.
