IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN
MARK NEFF,
Petitioner,

ORDER

v.
Case No. 17-cv-476-bbc
LOUIS WILLIAMS, II,
Respondent.

Petitioner Mark Neff has submitted a certified inmate trust fund account statement
for the six-month period preceding the filing of a habeas petition. Accordingly, the court
must determine whether petitioner qualifies for indigent status.
Having considered petitioner’s affidavit of indigency and the inmate trust fund
account statement, I find that petitioner is unable to prepay the fees of commencing this
action or to post security therefor. Accordingly, petitioner’s request for leave to proceed in
forma pauperis is granted.
ORDER
IT IS ORDERED that petitioner Mark Neff’s motion for leave to proceed
without prepayment of the filing fee is GRANTED.
Entered this 27th day of June, 2017.
BY THE COURT:
