UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

RASHAD PHILLIP SCOTT, Civil

No. 16cv1175-WQH (RBB)

Petitioner,

ORDER DENYING IN FORMA

PAUPERIS APPLICATION AND

DISMISSING CASE WITHOUT

PREJUDICE

v.

W. L. MONTGOMERY, Warden, et al.,

Respondents.

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has not paid the $5.00 filing fee and

has filed a Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. He has

also filed a request to proceed in forma pauperis which reflects a $349.51 balance in his

prison trust account. The filing fee associated with this type of action is $5.00. See 28

U.S.C. § 1914(a).

It appears Petitioner can pay the requisite filing fee. Accordingly, the Court

DENIES the request to proceed in forma pauperis, and DISMISSES the case without

prejudice; Petitioner may submit a copy of this order along with the requisite fee no later

than July 18, 2016, to have the case reopened. IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: May 18, 2016
