ORDER finding as moot Plaintiff's motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis #5 . Denying the motion to appoint counsel #7 . 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 the 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 Plaintiff is capable of prosecuting these claims without appointed counsel. Plaintiff's motion for emergency transfer is denied #8 . Plaintiff requests relief through a motion and that relief is not available at this juncture of Plaintiff's lawsuit.
