See 28 U.S.C. § 636(c). By an order filed November 16, 2010, petitioner was ordered to file a new application to proceed in forma pauperis within thirty days and was cautioned that failure to do so would result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed. The thirty day period has now expired, and petitioner has not responded to the court's order and has not filed a new application to proceed in forma pauperis. However, on November 16, 2010, petitioner's letter dated November 11, 2010, was docketed. (Dkt. No. 4.) Petitioner provided a copy of prison officials' refusal to send the $5.00 filing fee to the court without the accompanying petition for writ of habeas corpus, claiming that the petition and the check "must be sent to the court altogether so [the] court knows reason for check."
