MEMORANDUM Order;: The dismissal for want of prosecution is vacated. Case reopened. Plaintiff's motion for attorney representation 10 is granted.

MEMORANDUM Order: Pro se plaintiff John Williams ("Williams") has regrettably continued to ignore this Court's earlier memorandum orders (the first issued on July 15, 2015 ("Order I") and the second issued on August 14, 2015 ("Order II")), each of which called on him to complete and submit the form of Motion for Attorney Representation ("Motion") that was plainly essential to his ability to proceed with his claim of a violation of his constitutional r ights. In each instance this Court gave Williams fully four weeks to comply, so that Order II had set a September 11 deadline and concluded by stating:If the required papers have not been received here on or before September 11, 2015, this Court wou ld be constrained to dismiss this action for want of prosecution.With September 11 having come and gone without any response from Williams, no reason appears to justify any further extension. As forecast in Order II, this action is indeed dismissed for want of prosecution. Signed by the Honorable Milton I. Shadur on 9/15/2015:Mailed notice(clw, )

MEMORANDUM Order with attachment: More than four weeks have passed since this Court issued the attached July 15memorandum order ("Order"), yet nothing has been done by pro se plaintiff John Williams ("Williams") to permit his laws uit, in which he claims a violation of his constitutional rights, to go forward. Because the Order granted Williams leave to proceed in forma pauperis but his ability to do so clearly depends on his being provided with legal assistance, his failure t o complete and submit the form of Motion for Attorney Representation ("Motion") that was sent him together with the Order is truly puzzling.Despite that lack of any response on Williams' part, this Court will give him another opportuni ty to do so. So it is once more transmitting copies of the Motion to him, again calling his particular attention to the second last paragraph of the July 15 Order. If the required papers have not been received here on or before September 11, 2015, this Court would be constrained to dismiss this action for want of prosecution. Signed by the Honorable Milton I. Shadur on 8/14/2015:Mailed notice(clw, )
