Petitioner is a prisoner proceeding pro se with a petition for writ of habeas corpus
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241.

16

On March 1, 2011, judgment was entered dismissing the petition for writ of habeas

17

corpus. On April 22, 2011, petitioner filed a notice of appeal, a motion for certificate of

18

appealability and an application to proceed in forma pauperis. Examination of petitioner’s

19

application to proceed in forma pauperis reveals that petitioner is unable to afford the costs of an

20

appeal. Accordingly, the application to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal is GRANTED. See

21

28 U.S.C. § 1915.

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

IT IS SO ORDERED.
