IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN
SEAN W. MOORE ,
Petitioner,
v.
COURT OF APPEALS OF WISCONSIN,
DISTRICT FOUR,
Respondent.
ORDER
Case No. 26-cv-104-jdp
Petitioner Sean W. Moore seeks a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254.
Petitioner requests leave to proceed without prepayment of the filing fee. 	Petitioner has
supported this request with an affidavit of indigency and a six-month trust account statement
from the institution.
In determining whether to allow a prisoner to proceed without prepayment, this court
uses the formula set forth in 28 U.S.C. § 1915(b)(1). Using information for the relevant time
period from petitioner’s trust fund account statement, I find that petitioner is able to pay the
filing fee. 	Accordingly, I will deny petitioner’s application for leave to proceed without
prepayment of the filing fee. To proceed further on this habeas petition, petitioner must pay
the $5 filing fee. If petitioner fails to pay the fee by April 20, 2026, the petition, I will assume
that petition wishes to withdraw this petition.
ORDER
IT IS ORDERED that:
1. 	Petitioner Sean W. Moore’s motion for leave to proceed without prepayment of
the filing fee is DENIED. Petitioner has until April 20, 2026 in which to pay the $5 filing fee.

petitioner wishes to withdraw this petition.
