EADS v. MERENDINO

NOT FOR PUBLICATION UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DISTRICT OF NEW JERSEY CAMDEN VICINAGE CHRISTOPHER J. EADS, Civil No. 22-5571 (RMB) Petitioner v. OPINION WARDEN MERENDINO, Respondent

BUMB, District Judge Petitioner Christopher J. Eads, whose last known address is FCI Fairton in Fairton, New Jersey, filed this petition for writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2241 on or around September 15, 2022. (Pet., ECF No. 1.) A search of Petitioner’s records indicates that Petitioner transferred to another facility.

However, Petitioner has not advised the Court of his new address.

I. DISCUSSION Local Civil Rule 10.1(a) provides, in relevant part: unrepresented parties must advise the Court of any change in their . . . address within seven days of being apprised of such change by filing a notice of said change with the Clerk.

Failure to file a notice of change may result in the imposition of sanctions by the Court.

Dismissing a matter without prejudice is an appropriate remedy for noncompliance with this rule. See Archie v. Dept. of Corr., Civ. No. 12-2466 (RBK/JS), 2015 WL 333299, at *1 (D.N.J. Jan. 23, 2015) (collecting cases).

II. CONCLUSION The Court will dismiss this case without prejudice pursuant to Local Rule 10.1. An appropriate order follows.
