Lucero v. State of New Mexico ( 2020 )

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEW MEXICO FREDERICK LUCERO, Petitioner, Vs. No. CV 20-00773 KWR/KRS STATE OF NEW MEXICO, Respondent. ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE This matter is before the Court sua sponte. The record reflects that certain mailings to Petitioner Frederick Lucero were returned as undelivered (see Doc. 3). It appears that Petitioner Lucero has been transferred or released from custody without advising the Court of his new address, as required by D.N.M. LR-Civ. 83.6, thus severing contact with the Court. Because Petitioner has failed to comply with the Court’s local rules, he will be required to show cause why this action should not be dismissed. See Bradenburg v. Beaman, 632 F.2d 120, 122 (10 Cir. 1980) (‘It is incumbent on litigants, even those proceeding pro se, to follow the federal rules of procedure. . . The same is true of simple, nonburdensome local rules . . ..” (citation omitted)). Failure to comply with this Order may result in dismissal without further notice. IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that, within thirty (30) days from entry of this Order, Petitioner Frederick Lucero shall notify the Clerk in writing of his current address or otherwise show cause why this action should not be dismissed.
