Filing 6
ORDER: This case is before the Court upon Plaintiff's Motion to Counsel. (Doc. No. #4 ). The Constitution does not require the appointment of counsel for indigent plaintiffs in such as this, and Congress has not provided funds with which to compensate attorneys who might agree to represent those plaintiffs. Moreover, there are not enough attorneys who can absorb the costs of representing persons on a voluntary basis to permit the Court to appoint an attorney for all who file cases on their own behalf. The Court makes every effort to appoint counsel in those cases which proceed to trial, and inexceptional circumstances will attempt to appoint counsel at an earlier stage of the litigation. No such circumstances appear in this case. Accordingly, Plaintiff's Motion to Appoint Attorney (Doc. No. #4 ) is DENIED. Signed by Magistrate Judge Sharon L. Ovington on 11/19/2020. (kma)(This document has been sent by regular mail to the party(ies) listed in the NEF that did not receive electronic notification.)
