ORDER Plaintiff Corey Jackson (“Jackson”), appearing pro se, filed this action under
42 U.S.C. § 1983on the pro se prisoner civil rights complaint form. [Doc. No. 1]. The Court referred the matter to United States Magistrate Judge Amanda Maxfield Green for
preliminary review. [Doc. No. 4]. Judge Green screened Jackson’s complaint and entered a thorough Report and Recommendation recommending that the Court dismiss the action without prejudice for failure to state a claim upon which relief could be granted. [Doc. No. 12]. Judge Green advised Jackson of his right to file an objection to the Report and Recommendation on or
before August 23, 2024, and that a failure to timely object would waive Jackson’s right to appellate review of both factual and legal issues contained in the Report and Recommendation.
Id.at 6–7 (citing
28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1), Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(2), and Moore v. United States,
950 F.2d 656, 659(10th Cir. 1991)). To date, the record reflects that Jackson did not file an objection to the Report and
Recommendation by the deadline or request an extension of time to do so.1 Upon its review, the Court adopts the Report and Recommendation.
1 The Court notes that the Report and Recommendation [Doc. No. 12] was returned as undeliverable to Jackson in the mail. See [Doc. Nos. 13, 13-1]. However, Jackson is responsible for notifying the Court of any change of address, and “[p]apers sent by the court will be deemed delivered if sent to the last known address given to the court.” LCvR5.4 (emphasis added); see Fed. R. Civ. P. 5(b)(2)(C) (explaining that service is complete upon mailing to the person’s last known address). Thus, the service of the Report and Recommendation was complete upon mailing. See also Theede v. U.S. Dep’t of Labor,
172 F.3d 1262, 1267(10th Cir. 1999) (“The parties are far better situated to know of any errors in their address information, thus, they bear the burden of filing notice of a change of address . . . . The fact [plaintiff] is acting pro se does not eliminate this burden.”). Accordingly, the Court ACCEPTS the Report and Recommendation [Doc. No. 12] and DISMISSES this action without prejudice. A separate judgment will follow. IT IS SO ORDERED this 30th day of August 2024. a W. DISHMAN UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
