OPINION AND ORDER MODIFYING THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S JUNE 30 , 2020 REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION (ECF No. 47)
Currently before the Court is Magistrate Judge Elizabeth A. Stafford's June 30, 2020 Report and Recommendation. (ECF No. 47). Magistrate Judge Stafford recommends dismissing the complaint with prejudice for failure to prosecute. The address on file with the court is the address all documents, including the report and recommendation, were sent to. The report and recommendation was returned as undeliverable. (ECF No. 49). Plaintiff apparently provided the incorrect address to the court. (ECF No. 25). After the report and recommendation was filed and mailed to plaintiff at the address provided, the court learned that plaintiff contacted the court to correct an error in the address on file with the court. However, plaintiff did not file a written notice of change of address with the court to correct the error, which is required to effectively change his address with the court. Plaintiff has 14 days from entry of this Order to properly modify his address of record with the court or face DISMISSAL of his complaint. Therefore, the Court MODIFIES the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 47) to allow for the time stated above to formally modify plaintiff's address and holds the recommendation to dismiss in abeyance.
IT IS SO ORDERED. Date: August 24, 2020
