Civil Action No. 7:16-cv-00435
By: Elizabeth K. Dillon
United States District Judge

MEMORANDUM OPINION
Petitioner Frederick Douglas Ferguson, II, proceeding pro se, filed a petition for writ of
habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. The court conditionally filed the petition and
directed Ferguson to provide the court with certain financial documentation. On February 7,
2017, the court’s order was returned to the court as undeliverable and with no forwarding
address. Ferguson has not provided the court with an updated address; therefore, the court has
no means of contacting him. Accordingly, the court will dismiss Ferguson’s petition without
prejudice. Ferguson is advised that he may refile his claims in a separate action.
An appropriate order will be entered.
Entered: April 3, 2017.
