September 21, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 8 PAPERLESS ORDER denying #7 Motion to Appoint Counsel. This Cause is before the Court upon the motion of the plaintiff for appointment of counsel.The Court is not unmindful that the plaintiff is an indigent who has been permitted to proceed without prepayment of fees and costs pursuant to 28 U.S.C. l9l5(a). For that reason the prepayment of all filing and service fees has been waived and the Court has and will continue to make all of the services of Court functionaries available to the plaintiff without prepayment of fees and costs. It cannot, however, appoint a lawyer to represent the plaintiff, since there is no provision under the law for such appointment. Mallard v. U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa, 490 U.S. 296 (1989).This is not a criminal case in which the Sixth Amendment guarantees an indigent full access to the public fisc to assure justice. It is a private civil suit. Prisoners bringing such suits are required to bear their own expenses if they seek counsel, just as is any private litigant.Under compelling circumstances, the Court can request a lawyer to represent an indigent civil plaintiff pursuant to 28 U.S.C. l9l5(d). Any lawyer who agrees to undertake such representation must bear all his or her own expenses, such as travel expenses, and can receive no compensation unless the plaintiff ultimately prevails in the case. If the plaintiff does prevail, the Court can award a reasonable attorney's fee as part of the costs, pursuant to 42 U.S.C. l988.The Court has reviewed this case and finds that no compelling circumstances require the extraordinary procedure of seeking counsel for the plaintiff. Signed by Magistrate Judge Patrick A. White on 9/21/2018. (jbr)
