5 Joshua H. Crittendon, Case No. 2:20-cv-02062-CDS-VCF

6 Plaintiff

7 v. Order to Show Cause and 8 Ahjalee Cooper, et al., Directing Plaintiff to Update His Contact Information with the Court 9 Defendants 10

11 12 Pro se plaintiff Joshua Crittendon brings this action in which he alleges that a 13 correctional officer sexually harassed him and used excessive force against him at the High 14 Desert State Prison (HDSP), where he was incarcerated. ECF No. 1-1 at 1, 4–5. This case was 15 assigned to me on April 13, 2022. ECF No. 30. There were no filings in this action between May 16 5, 2022, and September 6, 2022. See ECF Nos. 31, 32. On September 26, 2022, a minute order 17 granting defendant’s motion to extend time to file a motion for summary judgment (ECF No. 33) 18 was returned as undeliverable from the Ely State Prison, noting that Crittendon was “housed at 19 HDSP.” ECF No. 34. On November 2, 2022, defendant’s second motion to extend time to file a 20 motion for summary judgment (ECF No. 35) was returned as undeliverable from the Ely State 21 Prison, again noting that Crittendon was “not at ESP.” ECF No. 36. However, Crittendon has 22 not filed an updated address with the court. 23 Crittendon is reminded that although he is proceeding pro se, he must comply with the 24 Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the local rules of this court. See King v. Atiyeh,

, 25 567 (9th Cir. 1987), overruled on other grounds, Lacey v. Maricopa Cnty.,

(9th Cir. 2012) 26 (“Pro se litigants must follow the same rules of procedure that govern other litigants.”). Under 1 this district’s local rules, a “pro se party must immediately file with the court written notification 2 of any change of mailing address, email address, telephone number, or facsimile number. The 3 notification must include proof of service on each opposing party or the party’s attorney. Failure 4 to comply with this rule may result in the dismissal of the action, entry of default judgment, or 5 other sanctions as deemed appropriate by the court.” LR IA 3-1. I hereby grant Crittendon until 6 Monday, December 5, 2022, to show cause why he has not filed an updated address with the 7 court and comply with this order by filing his updated address. If Crittendon does not update the 8 court with his current address by the deadline, this case may be dismissed without prejudice and 9 without further notice. 10 Conclusion 11 For the foregoing reasons, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Crittendon must update his 12 address with the court by Monday, December 5, 2022. 13 IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that if Crittendon fails to timely comply, this case may be 14 dismissed without prejudice and without further notice. 15 DATED: November 3, 2022 16
