IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

RICHARD GONZALES, No. CIV S-10-0205-CMK-P

Petitioner, 

vs. ORDER

GARY SWARTHOUT, et al.,

Respondents.

 /

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, brings this petition for a writ of

habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 challenging the denial of parole in 2009. Petitioner

has not, however, adequately resolved the fee status for this case. On February 3, 2010, the court

directed petitioner to file a complete application to proceed in forma pauperis or pay the filing fee

within 30 days. On February 18, 2010, petitioner filed a copy of his prison trust account

statement. That filing was not accompanied by a signed application to proceed in forma

pauperis. Petitioner will be provided an additional opportunity to submit either a completed and

signed application to proceed in forma pauperis or pay the appropriate filing fee. Petitioner is

warned that failure to comply with this order may result in the dismissal of this action for lack of

prosecution and failure to comply with court rules and orders. See Local Rule 110.

Application to Proceed In Forma Pauperis By a Prisoner.

DATED: March 17, 2010
