UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ARTURO ORTEGA-MORENO, Civil No. 07cv1419-JM (BLM)

Petitioner,

ORDER DENYING IN FORMA

PAUPERIS APPLICATION AND

DISMISSING CASE WITHOUT

PREJUDICE

v.

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND

SECURITY,

Respondent.

Petitioner, a Department of Homeland Security detainee proceeding pro se, has filed a Petition

for a Writ of Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241, along with a request to proceed in forma

pauperis. The filing fee associated with this type of action is $5.00. See 28 U.S.C. § 1914(a).

Based upon a review of the financial information submitted in support of the motion to proceed

in forma pauperis, it appears Petitioner can pay the requisite filing fee. Accordingly, the Court DENIES

the request to proceed in forma pauperis, and DISMISSES the case without prejudice; Petitioner may

submit a copy of this order along with the requisite fee no later than April 25, 2008, to have the case

reopened.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: February 25, 2008
