1. Petitioner shall submit, within thirty days from the date of this order, an affidavit in support of his request to proceed in forma pauperis or the appropriate filing fee; petitioner's failure to comply with this order may result in this action being dismissed; and

2. The Clerk of the Court is directed to send petitioner a copy of the in forma pauperis form used by this district.
