ORDER DIRECTING RESPONDENT TO

PROVIDE PROOF OF COMPLIANCE

[Docs. 4, 10]

ORDER DENYING PETITIONER’S

MOTION FOR REIMBURSEMENT OF

APPEAL FEES

[Doc. 27]

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

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. 

On December 21, 2006, the District Court issued an order granting the petition and ordering

Respondent to consider the appropriateness of transferring Petitioner to a Residential Re-entry

Center in light of the factors set forth in § 3621(b), not excluding any other factors deemed

appropriate by the BOP, without reference to the BOP policy promulgated in December 2002 and

without reference to the BOP’s February 14, 2005, amendment to 28 C.F.R. § 570.21. By Court

order dated February 12, 2007, the deadline for compliance was set for September 19, 2007. The

deadline has now passed; therefore, Respondent will be directed to file a notice regarding

compliance with the court order.

On December 10, 2007, Petitioner filed a motion requesting reimbursement of his appeal fee.

fifteen (15) days of the date of service of this order; and

2. Petitioner’s motion for reimbursement of the appeal fee is DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
