UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MARIO G. MARTINEZ,

Petitioner,

v.

MICHAEL BABCOCK, Warden,

Respondent.

No. 2:14-cv-00333 MCE DAD P

ORDER

Petitioner, a federal prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed a petition for writ of habeas 

corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241, together with an application to proceed in forma pauperis 

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. There are three problems with petitioner’s application to proceed 

in forma pauperis: (1) it is not on the form used by this district; (2) petitioner did not sign and 

date the application; and (3) the application does not include a copy of petitioner’s prison trust 

account statement for the six-month period preceding the filing date of his petition. Petitioner 

will be accorded the opportunity to submit the appropriate affidavit in support of his request to 

proceed in forma pauperis; alternatively, petitioner may pay the filing fee ($5.00). See 28 U.S.C. 

§§ 1914(a); 1915(a).
