Respondent.

______________________________/
Petitioner is a prisoner proceeding pro se with a petition for writ of habeas corpus

16
17

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241.

18

On July 25, 2011, judgment was entered dismissing the petition for writ of habeas

19

corpus. On August 25, 2011, Petitioner filed an application to proceed in forma pauperis

20

on appeal. Examination of Petitioner’s application to proceed in forma pauperis reveals

21

that Petitioner is unable to afford the costs of an appeal. Accordingly, the application to

22

proceed in forma pauperis on appeal is GRANTED. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915. The Clerk is

23

directed to serve a copy of this order on the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
