UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

VADIM STANLEY MIESEGAES,

Petitioner,

 v.

KAMALA HARRIS, et al.,

Respondents. /

No. C 15-0995 MEJ (PR)

ORDER VACATING JUDGMENT;

RE-OPENING CASE; GRANTING

EXTENSION OF TIME TO PAY

FILING FEE

Docket No. 12

On March 3, 2015, petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, filed a federal

petition for writ of habeas corpus. On June 12, 2015, the Court denied petitioner’s motion

for leave to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP”) and ordered him to pay the $5.00 filing fee by

July 10, 2015 or face dismissal of this action. On July 20, 2015, the Court dismissed this

action for failure to timely pay the filing fee. 

On July 23, 2015, petitioner filed a request for extension of time to pay the filing fee. 

Petitioner represents that he did not receive the Court order denying his IFP motion until July

16, 2015.

Accepting as true petitioner’s statements that the late filing was due to circumstances

beyond his control, the action is hereby REOPENED. The order of dismissal (Docket No.

10) and judgment (Docket No. 11) are VACATED.

relief.
