ORDER ON MOTION

It is a standing rule of this court that if, after considering a prisoner’s affidavit for in forma

pauperis treatment, it is determined that the prisoner is financially able to pay the appropriate filing

fee, he must do so. Upon consideration of the fact that the petitioner had $68.07 in his prison

account at the time he filed this habeas petition, it is the opinion of the Magistrate Judge that the

petitioner is able to pay the $5.00 filing fee. Accordingly, it is 

ORDERED that on or June 10, 2011 the petitioner shall forward to the Clerk of this Court

the $5.00 filing fee. It is further 

ORDERED that except to the extent that payment is required under this order the petitioner's

motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis is hereby GRANTED. The petitioner is cautioned

that if he fails to comply with this order the Magistrate Judge will recommend that his petition be

dismissed.

Done this 27th day of May, 2011.
