December 13, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 153 OPINION AND ORDER: For the foregoing reasons, Plaintiff's Application for the Court to Request Counsel is granted. Due to a scarcity of volunteer attorneys, some period of time may pass before counsel volunteers to represent Plaintiff. Nevert heless, this litigation will progress at a normal pace. If an attorney volunteers, the attorney will contact Plaintiff directly. There is no guarantee, however, that a volunteer attorney will decide to take the case, and plaintiff should be prepar ed to proceed with the case pro se. Of course, if an attorney offers to take the case, it is entirely Plaintiff's decision whether to retain that attorney or not. The Court has established a Pro Bono Fund to encourage greater attorney represen tation of pro se litigants. The Fund is especially intended for attorneys for whom pro bono service is a financial hardship. See http://www.nysd.circ2.dcn/docs/prose/pro bono fund order.pdf.] The Clerk of the Court is respectfully requested to mail a copy to Plaintiff at the address listed on ECF and show proof of service on the docket. The Court certifies under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) that any appeal from this Order would not be taken in good faith and therefore IFP status is denied for the purpose of an appeal. See Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 444-45 (1962). (As further set forth in this Order.) (Signed by Judge Nelson Stephen Roman on 12/13/2018) (cf) Transmission to Docket Assistant Clerk for processing.
