December 10, 2021 Opinion or Order TEXT ORDER entered by Judge Colin Stirling Bruce on 12/10/2021. Plaintiff's motion for counsel #6 is DENIED. The Court generally will not consider recruiting counsel for a pro se plaintiff until the Court determines that he possess a claim upon which relief can be granted after the Court conducts a review of the complaint. Plaintiff may renew his motion if his claim survives that review that the Court will conduct in the near future. (KE)

December 8, 2021 Opinion or Order TEXT ORDER entered by Judge Colin Stirling Bruce on 12/8/2021. Plaintiff's motion to compel #4 is DENIED as premature. Discovery cannot begin until the Court has conducted a merit review of Plaintiff's Complaint that is required by 28 USC Section 1915A, until Defendants have filed an answer to Plaintiff's Complaint, and until the Court enters a Scheduling Order. The Court will not conduct a merit review until Plaintiff either pays the required filing fee or moves and obtains leave to proceed in forma pauperis. Until these steps occur, Plaintiff may not engage in discovery, and his motion to compel is denied. Similarly, Plaintiff's motion in opposition to Defendants' motion for summary judgment #5 is DENIED as moot. Defendants have not yet filed a motion for summary judgment. Therefore, Plaintiff's motion in opposition to a yet-to-be filed motion for summary judgment is moot. (KE)

The Clerk is directed to send Plaintiff the forms for proceeding in forma pauperis. (KE)
