May 3, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 10 PAPERLESS ORDER denying #9 Motion to Appoint 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. 1915(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). The Court has reviewed this case and finds that no compelling circumstances require the extraordinary procedure of seeking counsel for the plaintiff. Should developments in the case alter that assessment at a later time, appropriate steps will be taken. Signed by Magistrate Judge Lisette M. Reid on 5/3/2019. (erd)
