Filing 11
ORDER: Plaintiff has paid the statutory filing fee, as ordered 9 Summons, however, shall not issue. Plaintiff's amended complaint #8 is dismissed without prejudice for failure to state a claim. If Plaintiff wants to proceed with this lawsuit, he must submit an amended complaint that states a federal claim against proper defendants. Failure to submit an amended complaint by February 4, 2022, will result in dismissal of this lawsuit for failure to state a claim. Plaintiff's motion for attorney representation #4 is denied. This case is in its early stages, and there is nothing before this Court that suggests that Plaintiff is unable to address his fee status (in accordance with the Court's July 22, 2021 order) without a lawyer. See Pickett v. Chicago Transit Auth., 930 F.3d 869, 871 (7th Cir. 2019) (motions for attorney representation are properly denied when it is too early in the case to determine whether the plaintiff can represent himself adequately). Additionally, Plaintiff gives no indication he attempted to obtain counsel on his own. See Pruitt v. Mote, 503 F.3d 647, 654-55 (7th Cir. 2007) (en banc); Russell v. Bukowski, 608 F.App'x 426, 428 (7th Cir. 2015) ("[B]efore a district court is required to consider recruiting counsel to assist a litigant in a civil case, the litigant must make a reasonable attempt to secure counsel for himself."). The Clerk of Court is directed to send Plaintiff an amended complaint form, a blank USM-285 form, and instructions along with a copy of this order. Signed by the Honorable Sharon Johnson Coleman on 1/7/2022. Mailed Notice.(gcy, )
