1 2 3 4 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 5 NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 6 7 RONNIE BRIGGS, Case No. 25-cv-04423-EMC

8 Plaintiff, ORDER OF DISMISSAL WITHOUT 9 v. PREJUDICE

10 KILLINGS, Defendant. 11

12 13 On May 23, 2025, Plaintiff Ronnie Briggs filed a pro se prisoner complaint under 14

. ECF No. 1. On the same day the action was filed, the Court sent a notification 15 to Briggs informing him that his action could not go forward until he paid the filing fee or filed a 16 completed prisoner’s in forma pauperis (IFP) application. ECF No. 2. On July 21, 2025, the 17 Court’s correspondence regarding the filing fee was returned to as undeliverable. ECF No. 3. 18 More than twenty-eight days have passed and Briggs has not paid the filing fee, filed an in forma 19 pauperis application, or otherwise communicated with the Court. Given that Briggs failed to pay 20 the filing fee, file an IFP application, or comply with Civil Local Rule 3-11, the matter is 21 DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. See Carey v. King,

(9th Cir. 22 1988) (affirming dismissal of pro se prisoner’s complaint for failing to notify court of his change 23 of address). Any motion to reopen this matter must be accompanied by a change of address form 24 and the filing fee or an IFP application. The Clerk shall close the file. 25 IT IS SO ORDERED. 26 Dated: September 24, 2025 27
