ORDER

The petitioner’s motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis (filing no. 15) is denied
because it requires that Lancaster County, Nebraska, be held responsible for the fees, costs
and other expenses required for the appeal of this habeas corpus matter. Secondly, the
petitioner has not been allowed to proceed in forma pauperis because he paid the filing fee.
Therefore, the court has not received his institutional account statement and his poverty
affidavit (filing no. 15) is far too general. Therefore,
IT IS ORDERED that:
(1)
is denied.

The petitioner’s motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis (filing no. 15)

(2)
If the petitioner wishes to proceed with his appeal, he must pay the required
appellate filing fee.
DATED this 30th day of September, 2016.
BY THE COURT:
s/ Richard G. Kopf
Senior United States District Judge
