CIVIL ACTION 16-0239-CB-C

:
ORDER

A petition has been filed under 28 U.S.C. 2254 by an Alabama prisoner (Doc. 1).
However, Petitioner’s Motion to Proceed In Forma Pauperis is not on this Court’s form (Doc. 2),
and is, therefore, DENIED. See Local Rule 83.9(d)(1) (requiring a pro se litigant to file his
pleadings on this Court’s forms). Petitioner, therefore, is ORDERED by June 14, 2016, to file
this Court’s form for a motion to proceed without prepayment of fees or to pay the required
filing fee. Failure to comply with this order within the prescribed time or to notify the Court of a
change of address will result in the dismissal of this action for failure to prosecute and to obey
the Court’s order.
The Clerk is DIRECTED to send Petitioner the form for a Motion to Proceed Without
Prepayment of Fees.
DONE this the 24th day of May, 2016.

s/WILLIAM E. CASSADY
UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
