United States District Court

Eastern District of California

Darin Anthony Palermo,

Petitioner, No. Civ. S 05-2039 DFL PAN P

vs. Order

Teresa A. Schwartz, 

Respondent.

-oOoPetitioner seeks leave to proceed in forma pauperis in a

habeas corpus action. A habeas petitioner must either pay a

$5.00 filing fee or submit an affidavit showing he or she is

unable to pay or give security for the fee. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a). 

Petitioner’s in forma pauperis affidavit shows he currently

is employed. His average monthly balance over the last six

months was $225.96 and his average monthly deposits over the last

six months were $160.22. His present balance is $394.43. 

Petitioner has failed to show he is unable to pay the filing fee.
