May 8, 2024 Filing 13 ***DISREGARD - FILED IN ERROR*** Appellant's BRIEF by Ke-Wei Lin. (Lin, Ke-Wei) Modified per request of the filer on 5/23/2024 (cea).
April 22, 2024 Opinion or Order Filing 12 ELECTRONIC ORDER: Since the magistrate judge filed her recommendation that the plaintiff's case be dismissed without prejudice for lack of subject matter jurisdiction, the plaintiff has filed several documents, which are liberally construed as objections to the recommendation. Docs. 7-11. In one document [Doc. 9 at 2], the plaintiff requests more time to respond to the recommendation and to file documents in support of his opposition. Upon consideration, to the extent that the plaintiff seeks additional time to object, his request is GRANTED, and he must file objections and documents in support by May 9, 2024. The plaintiff also requests court-appointed counsel. [Doc. 9 at 3.] The Court DENIES the plaintiff's request for court-appointed counsel. The plaintiff has not shown that subject matter jurisdiction exists and has therefore not shown that the case presents exceptional circumstances warranting the appointment of counsel. See Ulmer v. Chancellor, 691 F.2d 209, 213 (5th Cir. 1982). In the event the District Judge declines to accept the recommendation to dismiss this action, the plaintiff may re-urge his motion.
