IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN
STEPHANIE ANN DEYOT ,
Petitioner,

ORDER

v.
Case No. 18-cv-119-bbc
DUNN COUNTY, WI COURTHOUSE and
WI DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS,
Respondents.

Petitioner Stephanie Ann Deyot seeks a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §
2254. Petitioner has submitted a motion for leave to proceed without prepayment of the
filing fee. (Dkt. # 2).

The court cannot consider this motion, however, because it lacks

supporting documentation regarding 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
trust fund 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 March 15, 2018, the court
will assume that petitioner wishes to withdraw this action voluntarily and will dismiss the
petition.

ORDER
IT IS ORDERED that:
1.

The motion for leave to proceed without prepayment of the filing fee (Dkt.

# 2) is DENIED at this time.

2.

No later than March 15, 2018, petitioner Stephanie Ann Deyot shall pay the

$5 filing fee or submit a certified copy of petitioner’s inmate trust fund account statement for
the six-month period from the date of the habeas petition (August 20, 2017 through at least
February 20, 2018).
3.

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 21st day of February, 2018.
