July 21, 2017	Filing 11 MERIT REVIEW OPINION (Rule 16 Deadline 9/19/2017) - Entered by Judge Harold A. Baker on 7/21/2017. See written Order.

Plaintiff's motion for preliminary injunction 1 and motion for leave to supplement 10 are denied. Plaintiff's motion to re quest counsel 4 is denied with leave to renew. Plaintiff has no constitutional or statutory right to counsel in this case. In considering the Plaintiff's motion, the court asks: (1) has the indigent Plaintiff made a reasonable attempt to obta in 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, 654-55 (7th Cir. 2007), citing Farmer v. Haas, 990 F.2d 319, 322 (7th Cir.1993). Plaintiff has not shown that he made a reasonable effort to obtain counsel on his own. A plaintiff usually does this by attaching copies of letters sent to attorneys seeking representation and copies of any responses recei ved. Because Plaintiff has not satisfied the first prong, the Court does not address the second. Plaintiff's motion to disqualify attorney general 5 is denied. Plaintiff's allegations contained in the motion are speculative at best.(LN, ilcd)
