Petitioner Hogan is allowed until March 28, 1988, within which to pay the docketing fee required by Rule 45(a) and to submit a petition for writ of certiorari in compliance with Rule 33 of the Rules of this Court. Petition for writ of certiorari as to petitioner Erickson denied.

For the reasons expressed in Brown v. Herald Co., 464 U. S. 928 (1983), we would deny the petition for writ of certiorari without reaching the merits of the motion to proceed in forma pauperis.
