IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN
TODD R. WALKER,
Petitioner,

ORDER

v.
Case No. 24-cv-829-jdp
WARDEN E. EMMERICH
FCI OXFORD,
Respondent.

Petitioner Todd R. Walker seeks a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241.
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 December 20, 2024, 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 December 20, 2024, petitioner Todd R. Walker 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 (May 21, 2024 through at least
November 21, 2024).
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 22nd day of November, 2024.
