UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 
NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 
 
JEVARIEN ZYMELL DUNLAP, 
Plaintiff, 
v. 
 
ROSS STORES, 
Defendant. 
 

 
ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE 
JUDGE’S REPORT AND 
RECOMMENDATION FOR 
DISMISSAL 
Re: Dkt. No. 11, 7 
 
 
The Court has reviewed Magistrate Judge Cisneros’ Order to Show Cause, Dkt. No. 7, and 
Report and Recommendation for Dismissal, Dkt. No. 11. Pro se Plaintiff Jevarien Zymell Dunlap 
did not respond to the Order to Show Cause, and the time for objections to the Report has passed 
and none were filed. At least some of the mail sent to Plaintiff was returned as undeliverable in 
February 2026, including the Order to Show Cause. See Dkt. Nos. 9, 10. It is therefore not clear 
if Plaintiff ever received the Order to Show Cause or the Report and Recommendation. 
Nevertheless, Plaintiff has an obligation to maintain his address on file with the Court. See Civil 
L.R. 3-11(a). He evidently has not done so, and this alone is a basis to dismiss the complaint. See 
Civil L.R. 3-11(b). The Court additionally finds the analysis in the Order to Show Cause and 
Report and Recommendation well-reasoned and thorough, and adopts it in every respect.
