Petitioner, No. CIV S-10-0494 EFB P

Petitioner, a prisoner without counsel, has filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus. 

See 28 U.S.C. § 2254. He seeks return of the $5.00 filing fee he has paid in this action.

and orders refund of the $5.00 filing fee.

Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that:
