VINCENT EUGENE WALKER, Plaintiff, v. JAMES WHITLEY, et al., Defendants.


MEMORANDUM OPINION

Plaintiff Vincent Eugene Walker, proceeding pro se, filed a complaint pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The court conditionally filed the complaint and advised Walker that he must notify the court in writing immediately upon his transfer or release and provide the court with a new address. The court warned Walker that failure to notify the court of a change of address would result in dismissal of his case. On May 16, 2016, a service order that was mailed to Walker was returned to the court as undeliverable and marked "Return to sender: Inmate not at this facility." Walker has not provided the court with an updated address and, therefore, the court has no means of contacting him. Accordingly, I will dismiss Walker's complaint without prejudice for failure to comply with the court's order. Walker is advised that he may refile his claims in a separate action.

ENTER: This 27th day of May, 2016.
