Filing 10 AMENDED COMPLAINT against All Defendants, filed by Jackie Don Meeks, II.(kdr) |
Filing 9 (This is a TEXT ENTRY ONLY. There is no pdf document associated with this entry.) ORDER denying #8 Motion to Appoint Counsel. A civil litigant does not have a constitutional or statutory right to appointed counsel in a civil action but the Court may appoint counsel at its discretion. 28 U.S.C. 1915(e)(1). The Court has considered plaintiff's need for an attorney, the likelihood that plaintiff will benefit from assistance of counsel, the factual complexity of the case, the plaintiff's ability to investigate and present his case, and the complexity of the legal issues. In considering these factors, the Court finds that plaintiff's claims do not appear legally or factually complex, and it appears he is capable of prosecuting his claims without appointed counsel at this time. The Clerk of Court is directed to send Plaintiff another copy of Doc. No. #7 . Plaintiff must amend his complaint within 30 days; he must do his best to describe his claims in a clear and concise manner. Signed by Magistrate Judge Patricia S. Harris on 5/12/2021. (cfd) |
