THOMAS CASH, Petitioner, v. CALVIN JOHNSON, et al., Respondents.
ORDER
RICHARD F. BOULWARE, II UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
Thomas Cash has submitted a pro se 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas petition and an application to proceed in forma pauperis. Based on the current information about petitioner's financial status, including any additional information he may have provided, the Court finds that he is able to pay the full fee pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Petitioner's motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis without having to prepay the full filing fee (ECF No. 1) is DENIED. Petitioner has 30 days from the date of this order to have the $5.00 filing fee sent to the Clerk of Court.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that failure to do so may result in the dismissal of this action. The Clerk is directed to RETAIN the petition but not file it at this time.
