Respondents.

14

Petitioner has submitted an application to proceed in forma pauperis (ECF No. 1)

15

and a petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. The Court finds

It is therefore ordered that the application to proceed in forma pauperis (ECF No.

18

19

have the filing fee of five dollars ($5.00) sent to the Clerk of the Court. Failure to comply

20

will result in the dismissal of this action.

21

It is further ordered that the Clerk of the Court send petitioner two (2) copies of this

22

order. Petitioner is ordered to make the necessary arrangements to have one (1) copy of

23

this order attached to the check paying the filing fee.
