Plaintiff is a prisoner proceeding pro se with a civil rights complaint pursuant to 42

U.S.C. § 1983. This proceeding was referred to this court by Local Rule 72-302 pursuant to

 On May 26, 2005, the court filed an order requiring plaintiff to submit an

application to proceed in forma pauperis or pay the filing fee of $250 within thirty days. A

review of the file shows that plaintiff filed an application to proceed in forma pauperis

together with a certified copy of his prison trust account statement on May 12, 2005. Due

26, 2005, shall be vacated. In addition, plaintiff’s application to proceed in forma pauperis

Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(b)(1), enacted April 26, 1996, plaintiff is required to pay the

paid in full. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(b)(2).

In accordance with the above, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

 1. Plaintiff's request for leave to proceed in forma pauperis is granted.

2. Plaintiff is obligated to pay the statutory filing fee of $250.00 for this

action. The fee shall be collected and paid in accordance with this court’s order to the

Director of the California Department of Corrections filed concurrently herewith.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
