LORETTA HAWKS, Petitioner, v. ABOUTANAA EL HABTI, Warden, Respondent.
ORDER
Charles B. Goodwin United States District Judge.
This matter is before the Court for review of the Report and Recommendation issued by United States Magistrate Judge Shon T. Erwin on December 23, 2022 (Doc. No. 6). Judge Erwin recommended that Petitioner Loretta Hawks' Application for Leave to Proceed In Forma Pauperis (Doc. No. 5) be denied based upon Petitioner's ability to pay the required filing fee.
Within the time allowed for objection, Petitioner submitted the requisite $5.00 filing fee to the Court Clerk. See Doc. No. 7.
In light of Petitioner's submission of the required fee, the Court DENIES Petitioner's Application for Leave to Proceed In Forma Pauperis (Doc. No. 5). The Court ADOPTS the reasoning of the Report and Recommendation (Doc. No. 6).
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that this matter is re-referred to Judge Erwin for further proceedings consistent with the initial case referral.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
