UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

HILLERY ALLEN, Civil

No.

16cv1941-AJB (NLS)

Petitioner,

ORDER DENYING IN FORMA

PAUPERIS APPLICATION AND

DISMISSING CASE WITHOUT

PREJUDICE

v.

RONALD RACKLEY, Warden, et al.,

Respondents.

On July 29, 2016, Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, filed a Petition for a Writ

of Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254, along with a motion for tolling of the statute

of limitations. (ECF Nos. 1-2.) On August 2, 2016, the Court denied the motion for tolling and

dismissed this case due to Petitioner’s failure to satisfy the filing fee requirement. (ECF No. 3.) 

Petitioner was informed that if he wished to proceed with this action he was required to either

pay the $5.00 filing fee or file a motion to proceed in forma pauperis indicating his inability to

pay the fee on or before October 3, 2016. (Id.) 

Petitioner has now filed a request to proceed in forma pauperis which reflects a $612.06

balance in his prison trust account. (ECF No. 5.) The filing fee associated with this type of

action is $5.00. See 28 U.S.C. § 1914(a). It appears Petitioner can pay the requisite filing fee. 

Accordingly, the Court DENIES the request to proceed in forma pauperis, and DISMISSES the
