ORDER ON MOTION

It is a rule of this court that if, after considering a prisoner’s affidavit for in forma

pauperis treatment, it is determined that the prisoner is financially able to pay the

appropriate filing fee, he must do so.

Upon consideration of the fact that the petitioner earns approximately $35 per

month, it is the opinion of the Magistrate Judge that the petitioner is able to pay the $5.00

filing fee. Accordingly, it is 

ORDERED that on or April 10, 2007 the petitioner shall forward to the Clerk of this

Court the $5.00 filing fee. It is further 

ORDERED that except to the extent that payment is required under this order the

petitioner's motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis is hereby GRANTED.
