NELSON S. ROMAN, United States District Judge: On May 6, 2019, Plaintiff, currently incarcerated at Sing Sing Correctional Facility, initiated this action, pro se, under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, alleging that Defendants are violating his constitutional rights. (ECF No. 2.) By Order of Service dated June 5, 2019, this Court directed the United States Marshals Service (the “Marshals”) to assist Plaintiff in serving his Complaint on all Defendants. (ECF No. 6.) On August 26, 2019, Defendant E. Holder’s service was returned, unexecuted, by the Marshals. (ECF No. 9.) Accordingly, in a Valentin Order dated September 27, 2019, the Court directed the New York State Office of the Attorney General (““NYOAG”), located at 44 South Broadway, White Plains, NY 10601, to ascertain the correct name and address for Defendant E. Holder. (ECF No. 12.) On November 7, 2019, NYOAG informed the Court that there was no person named Holder employed as a physician by the New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision. Later, on December 5, 2019, NYOAG indicated that it learned, upon review of Plaintiffs medical records, that the correct name for Defendant E. Holder is Jonathan Holder, who is a private physician.

To allow Plaintiff to effect service on Defendant Jonathan Holder through the U.S. Marshals Service, the Clerk of the Court is instructed to fill out a U.S. Marshals Service Process Receipt and Return form (USM-285 form) for him. The service address for Defendant Holder is Maple Avenue #109, White Plains, NY 10601. The Clerk is further instructed to issue a summons and deliver to the Marshals Service all of the paperwork necessary for the Marshals Service to effect service upon Defendant Holder.

It is Plaintiff's responsibility to ensure that service is made within 90 days of the date the summons is issued and, if necessary, to request an extension of time for service. See Meilleur v. Strong, 682 F.3d 56, 63 (2d Cir. 2012). Plaintiff must also notify the Court in writing if his address changes, and the Court may dismiss the action if he fails to do so.

The Clerk of the Court is directed to mail a copy of this Order to Plaintiff and show proof of service on the docket. The Clerk is also directed to change the docket and case caption to reflect Defendant Holder’s correct name by substituting Jonathan Holder in place of E. Holder.
