IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

STEPHANIE NICOLE ERENDS,

Petitioner, No. 2:12-cv-2603 KJM CKD P

vs.

D.K. JOHNSON, 

Respondent. 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 has not, however, filed an in forma

pauperis affidavit or paid the required filing fee ($5.00). See 28 U.S.C. §§ 1914(a); 1915(a). 

Petitioner will be provided the opportunity to either submit the appropriate affidavit in support of

her request to proceed in forma pauperis or to submit the appropriate filing fee.

The court notes that petitioner’s motion for a stay holding the petition in abeyance

while she exhausts state court remedies on three of her five claims is pending. The court will

consider petitioner’s motion to stay if and when petitioner is granted in forma pauperis status or

pays the filing fee.
