CASE NO. 4:14-CV-90-CDL-MSH
28 U.S.C. § 2241
ORDER
On April 7, 2014, Petitioner filed the current federal habeas corpus petition
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. (ECF No. 1.) On April 10, 2014, Petitioner filed a motion
to proceed in forma pauperis. (ECF No. 5.) Upon review of Petitioner’s motion and
accompanying Trust Fund Account Statement (ECF No. 6) the Court finds that Petitioner
is unable to pay the filing fee at this time. Therefore, his motion to proceed in forma
pauperis is GRANTED.
Therefore, a copy of the petition and a copy of this Order shall now be served on
Respondents by the United States Marshal’s Service. Respondents shall file an answer,
motion, or other responsive pleading within sixty (60) days of the date of this Order.
Petitioner is notified that a failure to keep the Court apprised of any change in his address
may result in a dismissal for his failure to prosecute this action.
SO ORDERED, this 21st day of April, 2014.
/s/ Stephen Hyles
