1 On June 16, 2005, petitioner submitted a letter to the court in which petitioner suggests

the filing fee for this action has not reached to the court due to the actions of correctional staff at

petitioner’s place of incarceration. If petitioner cannot comply with this order, petitioner shall

inform the court within thirty days of the names of those staff members blocking petitioner’s efforts

to pay the filing fee or to submit a request to proceed in forma pauperis.

2. The Clerk of the Court is directed to send petitioner a copy of the application

to proceed in forma pauperis by a prisoner used by this district.1

DATED: October 25, 2005.
