UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

BRENDA LEE KELSON, Civil No. 09-2629 JM (WMc)

Petitioner,

ORDER GRANTING APPLICATION

TO PROCEED IN FORMA

PAUPERIS

v.

TINA HORNBEAK, Warden,

Respondent.

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has submitted a Petition for Writ of Habeas

Corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254, together with a request to proceed in forma pauperis.

Petitioner has $0.02 on account at the California correctional institution in which he is presently

confined. Petitioner cannot afford the $5.00 filing fee. Thus, the Court GRANTS Petitioner’s

application to proceed in forma pauperis, and allows Petitioner to prosecute the above-referenced

without being required to prepay fees or costs and without being required to post security. The

Clerk of the Court shall file the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus without prepayment of the

filing fee.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: January 21, 2010

 Hon. Jeffrey T. Miller
