IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEW JERSEY DAVID BROWN, Plaintiff, Civil Action No. 18-9791(RBK)(AMD) v. MEMORANDUM OPINION OFFICER HILT, et al., Defendants. ROBERT B. KUGLER, U.S.D.J. 1. On May 29, 2018, Plaintiff Michael Evron filed his complaint in this matter pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. 2. On October 31, 2018, the Court issued an Order reassigning this matter to the undersigned for all further proceedings. 3. The post office returned said Order as undeliverable on November 13, 2018, as Plaintiff was released from the Cumberland County Jail. Plaintiff has not contacted the Court in the intervening time to provide an updated address. 4. Local Civil Rule 10.1(a) requires unrepresented parties to notify the Court of any change in address within 7 days. The Rule further provides that, failure to file such notice “may result in the imposition of sanctions by the Court.” Id. Indeed, failure to apprise the Court of an address change may result in the outright dismissal of the case for failure to proceed, or an administrative termination of the action without prejudice. See, e.g., Allebach v. Cathell, No. 065005, 2009 WL 2147145 (D.N.J. July 15, 2009); Boretsky v. Corzine, No. 08-2265, 2008 WL 2512916 (D.N.J. June 23, 2008). 5. As the Court does not have a current address for Plaintiff, the matter cannot proceed at this time. The Court will therefore administratively terminate the proceedings without prejudice to Plaintiff’s right to reinstate this action by notifying the Court and defendants of his new address within 30 days. 6. Failure to provide an updated address within 30 days of the date of the accompanying Order may result in the matter being dismissed for lack of prosecution. 7. An appropriate Order follows. 12/05/18 Date s/Robert B. Kugler ROBERT B. KUGLER 2
