MERIT REVIEW ORDER entered by Judge Joe Billy McDade on 10/25/2018. IT IS ORDERED: 1) Plaintiffs complaint is dismissed in its entirety. Plaintiff will have 21 days in which to file an amended complaint. The amended complaint is to be captioned " ;Amended Complaint" and is to include all of Plaintiff's claims, without reference to a prior pleading. Failure to file the amended complaint will result in the dismissal of this action. 2) Plaintiff files 5 , a motion for recruitment of p ro bono counsel asserting that he sent letters to attorneys but received no response. He provides one handwritten letter he ostensibly sent to counsel which does not contain an address or identify to whom it was sent. The Court does not find this unc orroborated letter sufficient to establish that Plaintiff made a good faith effort to secure counsel on his own. Pruitt v. Mote, 503 F.3d 647, 654-55 (7th Cir. 2007). 5 is DENIED. In the event that Plaintiff renews his motion, he is to provide copies of the letters sent to, and received from, prospective counsel.
