UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

CHESTER WHEELER, 

Petitioner, 

v. 

ERIC ARNOLD, 

Respondent. 

No. 2:15-cv-0688-JAM-EFB P 

ORDER 

Petitioner, a state prisoner, proceeds pro se with a petition for a writ of habeas corpus 

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. On May 7, 2015, the court issued findings and recommendations, 

which recommended dismissal of this action for petitioner’s failure to pay the required filing fee 

or request leave to proceed in forma pauperis (“ifp”). ECF No. 4. 

Plaintiff filed objections on May 26, 2015, in which he explains that prison officials have 

delayed the processing of his IFP application. The court will hold the findings and 

recommendations in abeyance and grant petitioner a 60-day extension of time to file a completed 

application to proceed in forma pauperis. 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 

1. The May 7, 2015 findings and recommendations are held in abeyance, and petitioner 

has 60 days from the date of this order to submit his completed application for leave to proceed in 

forma pauperis; 

2. The Clerk is directed to send petitioner a copy of the ifp application; and
