ORDER

GREGORY HOLLOWS, Magistrate Judge

On December 7, 2010, the court ordered that respondent answer petitioner's petition for a writ of habeas corpus and ordered petitioner to file an application to proceed in forma pauperis. On December 30, 2010, petitioner filed an application to proceed in forma pauperis.

Examination of the in forma pauperis application reveals that petitioner is unable to afford the costs of suit. Accordingly, the application to proceed in forma pauperis will be granted. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a).

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that petitioner's application to proceed in forma pauperis is granted.
