___________________________________/
This action is a petition for writ of habeas corpus, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241, by Lavern Charles Fast Horse, who is apparently incarcerated in the Clark County Detention Center, in Las Vegas, Nevada, awaiting a criminal trial.
Fast Horse has filed an application to proceed in forma pauperis (ECF No. 1). Based upon the financial information provided with that application to proceed in forma pauperis , Fast Horse’s application will be granted and he will be granted leave to proceed in forma pauperis .
However, the Court has examined Fast Horse’s petition for a writ of habeas corpus, and finds that the petition is patently frivolous. Fast Horse claims that his constitutional right to due process of law has been violated, but he does not allege facts that could possibly support such a claim.
