IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KEVIN JACKSON,

Petitioner, No. CIV S-06-2646 LKK KJM P

vs.

ROBERT A. HOREL, et al., 

Respondents. ORDER

 /

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed an application for a writ of

habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. 

On April 25, 2007, the court issued findings and recommendations,

recommending that the action be dismissed because petitioner had neither paid the filing fee nor

submitted an application to proceed in forma pauperis. On May 11, 2007, the clerk’s office

notified the court that petitioner had paid the fee in February, but the receipt docketed only in

May.

Since petitioner may be entitled to the requested relief if the claimed violation of

constitutional rights is proved, respondents will be directed to file a response to petitioner’s

application.
