ZENO JUSTIN DAVIDSON, Petitioner, v. JOHN TSOUKARIS, et al., Respondents.
MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
Petitioner Zeno Justin Davidson, an immigration detainee confined at the Essex County Correctional Facility in Newark, New Jersey, filed this petition pro se for writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2241, challenging his detention. On June 27, 2016, attorney Anthony J. Fusco, Jr. entered an appearance on behalf of Petitioner. Petitioner has not paid the filing fee nor has he submitted an application to proceed in forma pauperis. Therefore, this matter will be administratively terminated. Petitioner shall have the chance to reopen this action if he either pays the $5.00 filing fee or files a complete application to proceed in forma pauperis on the form supplied by the Clerk that accompanies this Order within 45 days.
Therefore, IT IS on this 29th day of June, 2016,
ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court shall administratively terminate this case due to Petitioner's failure to pay the requisite filing fee of $5.00, or to submit a complete application to proceed in forma pauperis on the form supplied by the Clerk, and it is further
ORDERED that if Petitioner wishes to reopen this action, he shall notify the Court within 45 days of the date of entry of this order, in writing; Petitioner's writing shall include either a complete and signed in forma pauperis application or the $5.00 filing fee; and it is further
ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court shall provide a blank form application to proceed in forma pauperis by a non-prisoner (AO 239) to Petitioner by regular U.S. mail.
