IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JASON DAVID YONAI,

Petitioner, No. CIV S-06-2327 MCE GGH P

vs.

MS. EVANS, et al., 

Respondents. ORDER

 /

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed a petition for a writ of

habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254, together with an application to proceed in forma

pauperis.

Examination of the in forma pauperis application reveals that petitioner is unable

to afford the costs of suit. Accordingly, the application to proceed in forma pauperis will be

granted. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a).

Petitioner challenges his September 20, 2001, conviction for aggravated battery on

a peace officer. Court records reveal that petitioner filed another action in this court challenging

the same conviction, although on different grounds, CIV S-06-2318 MCE GGH P. On January 7,

2008, the court dismissed CIV S-06-2318 MCE GGH P on grounds that the claims were barred

by the statute of limitations.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Petitioner’s application to proceed in forma pauperis is granted;

2. Within twenty days of the date of this order, petitioner shall show cause why

the claims raised in the instant action are not barred by the statute of limitations.
