MAXWELL THIRSTFIELD

Petitioner,

 v.

LAURIE SMITH, 

Respondent. /

No. C 14-05319 EJD (PR)

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

On December 3, 2014, Petitioner, who appears to be a pretrial detainee proceeding pro

se, filed a document entitled “Habeas Corpus New Case... Federal Jurisdiction: United States

Constitution....”1

 (Docket No. 1.) On the same day, the Clerk sent Petitioner a notice that he

must file a proper petition along with the court’s form petition. (Docket No. 2.) Petitioner

was sent a separate notice stating that the action was deficient because he did not pay the

filing fee or file an In Forma Pauperis Application. (Docket No. 3.) Both notices advised

Petitioner to respond within twenty-eight days to avoid dismissal of the action. (See Docket

Nos. 2 & 3.)
