IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN
DEMETRIUS BOYD,
Petitioner,

ORDER

v.
Case No. 17-cv-511-wmc
GARY BOUGTON,
Respondent.

Petitioner Demetrius Boyd 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 and, if so, calculate the
initial partial payment of the $5.00 fee for this case.
Having considered petitioner’s 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 Demetrius Boyd’s request for leave to proceed without
prepayment of the filing fee is GRANTED.
Entered this 28th day of July, 2017.
