UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SYLVESTER O. OWINO,

Petitioner,

CASE NO. 06CV2149-BEN (CAB)

ORDER DENYING IN FORMA

PAUPERIS APPLICATION AS

MOOT

vs.

ALBERTO GONZALES, et al.

Respondents.

Petitioner Sylvester O. Owino (“Petitioner”), proceeding pro se, has filed a Petition for

Writ of Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. Petitioner has also filed a request to proceed

in forma pauperis which reflects a $34.74 trust account balance at the facility in which he is

presently confined. 

It appears Petitioner can afford the $5.00 filing fee. Petitioner did in fact pay the filing fee

on October 26, 2006. Accordingly, the Court DENIES the request to proceed in forma pauperis

as moot.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: August 27, 2007

Hon. Roger T. Benitez

United States District Judge
