TEXT ORDER entered by Judge James E. Shadid on 9/5/2023. Plaintiff's Motion for Leave to File Amended Complaint #3 is GRANTED. The Clerk is hereby directed to file the Amended Complaint and set the merit review deadline 30 days out. Plaintiff also filed a Motion to Request Counsel #5 asking the Court to appoint pro bono counsel to represent him. When evaluating a Motion to Request Counsel, the Court must engage in a two-step inquiry: "(1) has the indigent plaintiff made a reasonable attempt to obtain counsel or been effectively precluded from doing so; and if so, (2) given the difficulty of the case, does the plaintiff appear competent to litigate it himself?" Pruitt v. Mote, 503 F.3d 647, 655 (7th Cir. 2007). The first inquiry "is a mandatory, threshold inquiry that must be determined before moving to the second inquiry." Eagan v. Dempsey, 987 F.3d 667, 682 (7th Cir. 2021). This typically requires submitting letters from several attorneys declining assistance. See Olson v. Morgan, 750 F.3d 708, 711 (7th Cir. 2014). Plaintiff did not indicate what attempts he made to find an attorney, nor did he attach any letters he sent to or received from attorneys who declined to represent him. The Court is unable to determine if Plaintiff made a reasonable attempt to secure his own lawyer. Plaintiff's Motion to Request Counsel #5 is DENIED with leave to renew.(ANW)

Failure to comply without good cause will result in dismissal of this case without prejudice, and the Plaintiff will still be responsible for payment of the filing fee. See 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1914. The Clerk is directed to send Plaintiff the forms for proceeding in forma pauperis.(ANW)
