IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

PINE BLUFF DIVISION

RONALD MCJAMES

ADC #129103 PETITIONER

VS. 5:06CV00060 WRW/JTR

LARRY NORRIS, Director, 

Arkansas Department of Correction RESPONDENT

ORDER

Petitioner, an inmate at the Cummins Unit of the Arkansas Department of Correction, has

filed a Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. (Docket entry #2.) The Court

did not order service of the Petition because Petitioner’s Motion to Proceed In Forma Pauperis

(docket entry #1) was denied. (Docket entry #4.) 

Petitioner has now paid the filing fee (docket entry #6), and the Court will therefore order

service of the Petition.

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED THAT:

1. The Clerk of the Court is directed to serve a copy of the habeas Petition (docket entry

#2) and this Order on Respondent and the Arkansas Attorney General by mail.

2. Respondent shall file a responsive pleading within twenty (20) days of service. 

Respondent is directed to Rule 5 of the Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases with regard to the

required contents of an Answer.

Dated this 28th day of April, 2006.
