IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JOSEPH JOHN ETCHEVERRY, 1:05-CV-00454-OWW-DLB-HC

Appeal #06-17398

Petitioner, ORDER ACKNOWLEDGING PLAINTIFF’S

LEAVE TO PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS

vs. ON APPEAL

ORDER VACATING ORDER 

JEANNE WOODFORD, OF JANUARY 11, 2007 

 (Doc. 27) 

 

Respondent. ORDER DIRECTING CLERK TO SERVE

COPY OF THIS ORDER ON THE COURT 

 / OF APPEALS

Petitioner is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a petition for writ of habeas corpus

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. On November 15, 2006, petitioner filed a notice of appeal to the Court

of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.

On January 11, 2007, the district court ordered petitioner to submit an application to proceed

in forma pauperis or pay the $455.00 filing fee for the appeal. On January 22, 2007, petitioner

submitted a letter to the court, providing evidence that the court of appeals granted him leave to

proceed in forma pauperis on appeal. Petitioner is correct. A review of the Ninth Circuit’s docket

shows that on February 27, 2007, the court of appeals granted petitioner’s motion to proceed in forma

pauperis. For this reason, the district court shall vacate its order requiring petitioner to file an

application or pay the filing fee for the appeal. 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that :

1. The district court acknowledges that petitioner has been granted leave to proceed in

is VACATED in its entirety; and

Circuit.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
