October 14, 2025 Opinion or Order Filing 19 ORDER (Clerk) Action on the appellant's motion for appointment of counsel is deferred. Under certain circumstances, this Court "may request an attorney to represent any person unable to afford counsel." See 28 U.S.C. Section: 1915(e)(1); Tabron v. Grace, 6 F.3d 147, 15358 (3d Cir. 1993). If the appellant believes she qualifies for appointed counsel under that statute, she must file an affidavit with financial information demonstrating she is "unable to afford counsel." A form affidavit is available on the Court's website via the following link: https://www.ca3.uscourts.gov/sites/ca3/files/IFP_Affidavit_COUNSEL_ONLY.pdf. If the appellant believes a different statute allows the Court to appoint counsel in this case, she must supplement her motion to address any such statute. The appellant's affidavit or any supplement must be filed within ten days of this order. Any response to the summary-action motion filed by the School District of Philadelphia must also be filed within ten days of this order. The briefing schedule is stayed pending these motions. Unless the Court orders otherwise, the appellant's opening brief must be filed and served within twenty-one days after the Court decides the above-listed motions. (AMR) [Entered: 10/14/2025 01:09 PM]
