ORDER

D. DAVEY, Warden,

Respondent.

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, filed an application for a writ of habeas

17
18

corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 on April 6, 2017, ECF No. 1, and has now filed a completed

19

affidavit in support of his request to proceed in forma pauperis. Review of that affidavit

demonstrates that petitioner is qualified under 28 U.S.C. section 1915(a) for that status.

21

Petitioner’s application to proceed in forma pauperis is therefore GRANTED.
Petitioner is reminded that his opposition to respondent’s motion to dismiss is due July 19,
