Alvarez v. Gregg County Sheriff's Office

Trial Court Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS No. 6:23-cv-00426 Jorge Alvarez, Jr., Plaintiff, V. Gregg County Sheriff’s Office, Defendant.

ORDER Plaintiff Jorge Alvarez, Jr., proceeding pro se and mm forma pau- peris, filed this civil rights lawsuit under

42 U.S.C. § 1983

. At the time he filed the lawsuit, plaintiff was incarcerated at the Gregg County Jail. The case was referred to United States Magistrate Judge K. Nicole Mitchell pursuant to

28 U.S.C. § 636

(b). On September 29, 2023, the magistrate judge issued a report rec- ommending that this case be dismissed without prejudice for plain- tiff’s failure to comply with the court’s order to amend his complaint and failure to notify the court of his change of address, which re- sulted in the return of the court’s mail as undeliverable. Doc. 7. A copy of the report was mailed to plaintiff, but it was also returned as undeliverable due to plaintiff’s failure to notify the court of his cur- rent address. Doc. 9. The plaintiff did not file written objections. When no party objects to the magistrate judge’s report and rec- ommendation, the court reviews it only for clear error. See Douglass vy. United Servs. Auto. Ass’n,

79 F.3d 1415, 1420

(Sth Cir. 1996). Hav- ing reviewed the magistrate judge’s report, and being satisfied that it contains no clear error, the court accepts its findings and recommen- dation. This case is dismissed without prejudice. So ordered by the court on November 8, 2023. fLacbok BARKER United States District Judge
