No. 2:16-cv-1506 CKD P

Petitioner,

R. L. GOWER,

15

ORDER

Respondent.

16
17

Petitioner has requested an extension of time to pay the filing fee in this action. However,

18

because he has filed an application to proceed in forma pauperis that makes an adequate showing

19

of indigence, petitioner need not pay the filing fee, see 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a), or take further action

20

in this case until the court so orders. The court will proceed to screen the petition.

21

Accordingly, IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

22

1. Petitioner’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis (ECF No. 9) is granted; and

23

2. Petitioner’s request for an extension of time (ECF No. 10) is denied as moot.

Dated: October 13, 2016
