UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

IRA GORDON,

Petitioner,

v.

T. VIRGA,

Respondent.

No. 2:15-cv-1316 KJN P (TEMP)

ORDER

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed an application for a writ of habeas

corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. Petitioner consented to magistrate judge jurisdiction for all 

purposes pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) and Local Rule 305(a). (See ECF No. 4.)

By an order filed September 9, 2015, petitioner was ordered to either file an in forma 

pauperis affidavit or the required filing fee of $5.00 within thirty days, and was cautioned that 

failure to do so would result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed. Nearly ninety 

days have now expired. Yet petitioner has neither filed an in forma pauperis affidavit nor paid 

the filing fee as ordered.
