UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

SOFRONSKI P. BROOKINS, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

STATE OF CALIFORNIA, 

Defendant. 

No. 2:16-cv-1203 MCE AC P 

ORDER 

 Petitioner is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a petition for a writ of habeas corpus 

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. By order filed November 30, 2017, petitioner was given thirty 

days to either submit an application to proceed in forma pauperis or pay the filing fee. ECF No. 

6. Thirty days have now passed and petitioner has not moved to proceed in forma pauperis or 

paid the filing fee. However, petitioner has submitted a letter to the Clerk of the Court asking 

whether his filing fee has been received. ECF No. 7. Since the court has not yet received the 

filing fee, it appears that the payment request may still be processing. 

 Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that petitioner shall have thirty days from 

service of this order to pay the $5.00 filing fee. 

DATED: January 23, 2017
