STATE OF OKLAHOMA, et al., )
)
Defendants. )

O R D E R
Before the Court is the Report and Recommendation (R&R) of United States
Magistrate Judge Chris Stephens [Doc. No. 12]. The Magistrate Judge recommends that
the Court dismiss this action without prejudice for Plaintiff’s failure to comply with the
Court’s Orders [Doc. No. 10] and local rules, including LCvR 5.4 (requiring written notice
of a change of address and further providing that papers sent by the Court are “deemed
delivered if sent to the last known address given to the court.”). See R&R [Doc. No. 12]
at 2-4. The Magistrate Judge advised Plaintiff of his right to object to the R&R and directed
that any objections be filed on or before June 20, 2025. Id. at 4. No objection has been
filed, nor has an extension of time in which to object been sought or granted.1
Upon review, the Court fully concurs with the analysis set forth in the R&R.
Accordingly, the Report and Recommendation [Doc. No. 12] is ADOPTED and this action

1 The docket reflects that the R&R was returned as “return to sender,” “refused,” and “unable to
forward.” [Doc. No. 11]. Plaintiff is responsible for providing notice of any change of address to
the Court. See LCvR 5.4; see also Theede v. United States Dep’t of Labor, 172 F.3d 1262, 1267-
68 (10th Cir. 1999) (pro se plaintiff who failed to provide any change of address waived right to
review of report and recommendation by failing to make a timely objection).
is DISMISSED without prejudice. A separate judgment of dismissal shall be entered
contemporaneously with this Order.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 24" day of June, 2025.

SCOTT L. PALK
UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
