UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

BRENDA LEE KELSON, Petitioner, v. TINA HORNBEAK, Warden, Respondent.

Civil No.

09-2629 JM (WMc)

ORDER GRANTING APPLICATION TO PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has submitted a Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254, together with a request to proceed in forma pauperis. Petitioner has $0.02 on account at the California correctional institution in which he is presently confined. Petitioner cannot afford the $5.00 filing fee. Thus, the Court GRANTS Petitioner's application to proceed in forma pauperis, and allows Petitioner to prosecute the above-referenced without being required to prepay fees or costs and without being required to post security. The Clerk of the Court shall file the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus without prepayment of the filing fee. IT IS SO ORDERED. DATED: January 21, 2010 Hon. Jeffrey T. Miller United States District Judge
