ORDER CORRECTING

ERRONEOUS FILING;

CLOSING CASE;

INSTRUCTIONS TO CLERK

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, filed an application to proceed in

forma pauperis on March 12, 2007. Petitioner has an earlier habeas action pending with

the Court, in case no. C 07-1297 JF (PR), which was filed on March 6, 2007. On March

18, 2007, Petitioner filed a letter with the Court stating that his motion to proceed in

forma pauperis in the instant action should be filed in case no. C 07-1297 JF (PR). 

Petitioner’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis was mistakenly received and opened as a

new case in the instant action, rather than in his pending habeas action in case no. C 07-

1297 JF (PR). Accordingly, the Clerk is instructed to copy all documents from the instant

case and transfer the documents to Petitioner’s earlier filed habeas action in case number

C 07-1297 JF (PR).

Because the instant case was opened erroneously, the Clerk shall close the file and

terminate any pending motions. No filing fee is due. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
