Date Filed Document Text
February 7, 2023 Filing 9 SUMMONS Issued as to Defendant WEC Peoples Gas (rp, )
February 7, 2023 MAILED summons for defendant WEC Peoples Gas to plaintiff along with blank caption form. (rp, )
February 6, 2023 Filing 8 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Manish S. Shah: Plaintiff has paid the filing fee. The clerk shall issue summons to plaintiff and plaintiff must serve defendant. Plaintiff should consult Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4 to learn how to serve defendant properly. The application to proceed in forma pauperis #3 is denied as moot, because plaintiff paid the filing fee. The motion for attorney representation #4 is denied without prejudice. Plaintiff did not disclose specific efforts to find counsel on his own (but does say he cannot afford a retainer). There is no right to appointed counsel in civil cases, but the court has discretion to recruit an attorney for a party. Here, plaintiff is a college graduate and his filings to date demonstrate that he is able to present his claim without counsel at this early stage of the case. If the case becomes too complicated for plaintiff to manage, he may renew his request. The court sets a deadline for plaintiff to serve defendant by 5/4/23. Notices mailed. (psm, )
