LEO T. SOROKIN, District Judge.
On November 5, 2018, plaintiff Emanuel Vasquez filed a pro se complaint in this Court against Correctional Psychiatric Services ("CPS") and eight individual defendants in both their individual and official capacities. Doc. No. 1. At the time, Mr. Vasquez was residing at Plymouth County Correctional Facility ("PCCF") and provided only that address in his complaint.
On May 13, 2019, defendants Sprague, Gavoni, and Pierre filed a motion to dismiss on the grounds that "the Plaintiff has failed to provide timely service and the Complaint fails to state a claim for which relief may be granted." Doc. No. 16. On June 10, 2019, having not received an opposition from Mr. Vasquez within the fourteen days permitted by the Local Rules, the Court ordered Mr. Vasquez to file an opposition by July 2, 2019 and warned that he faced dismissal of his complaint if he failed to do so. Doc. No. 21. On June 18, 2019, defendants CPS and Nolan filed a motion to dismiss. Doc. No. 22. To date, Mr. Vasquez has not opposed either motion to dismiss, though any opposition to either motion was due on July 2, 2019.
On June 25, 2019, the Court received notice that the June 10 Order was returned as undeliverable because Mr. Vasquez no longer resides at the PCCF. Mr. Vasquez has not at any point provided an updated address at which he can receive mail relating to the case. Updating his address is Mr. Vasquez's burden. L. R. 83.5.5(h) ("Every party appearing pro se shall inform the clerk and all parties in writing of any change of name, address, telephone number, or e-mail address within 14 days of the change. It is the responsibility of the pro se party to notify the clerk and the parties of any change. Any notice sent by the clerk or any party to a pro se party shall be deemed delivered and properly served if sent to the most recent address or e-mail address provided by the pro se party.").
The motion to dismiss filed by Sprague, Gavoni, and Pierre, Doc. No. 16, is ALLOWED as unopposed and for the reasons set forth therein.
The motion to dismiss filed by CPS and Nolan, Doc. No. 22, is ALLOWED as unopposed and for the reasons set forth therein.
Two additional defendants have been named but not properly served. As to defendants Giroux, Welsh, and Nolan, the summonses which were issued by the Court and which were served by the United States Marshal Service, were returned
SO ORDERED.
