ORDER that Petitioner Keon Pendleton to submit $5 fee or Inmate Account Statement by 6/28/2017. Signed by Magistrate Judge Peter A. Oppeneer on 6/6/2017. (nln),(ps)
IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN
KEON D. PENDLETON,
Petitioner,
ORDER
v.
Case No. 17-cv-434-wmc
LOUIS WILLIAMS, II,
Respondent.
Petitioner Keon D. Pendleton seeks a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §
2241. Petitioner has submitted an inmate account statement, which I construe as petitioner’s
request for leave to proceed without prepayment of the filing fee. (Dkt. #3). However, the
court cannot consider petitioner’s request because the inmate account statement does not cover
the six-months preceding the filing of the habeas petition, which is required to determine
petitioner’s eligibility for indigent status. For this case to move forward, petitioner must either
pay the $5 filing fee or submit a certified inmate account statement (or institutional equivalent)
for the six-month period immediately preceding the filing of this habeas corpus petition. If
petitioner does not submit either the $5 filing fee or a trust fund account statement before
June 28, 2017, the court will assume that petitioner wishes to withdraw this action voluntarily
and will dismiss the petition.
ORDER
IT IS ORDERED that:
1.
No later than June 28, 2017, petitioner Keon D. Pendleton shall pay the $5
filing fee or submit a certified copy of petitioner’s inmate account statement for the six-month
period from the date of the habeas petition (November 22, 2016 through at least May 22,
2017).
2.
If petitioner fails to pay the $5 filing fee, comply as directed, or show cause for
failure to do so, the court will assume the petitioner wishes to withdraw this petition.
Entered this 6th day of June, 2017.
