- ilcd;;2:16-cv-02108_de37 RegisterActionDescriptionText "TEXT ORDER entered by Judge Harold A. Baker on 8/16/16. Plaintiff files 25 , a Motion for Recruitment of Pro Bono Counsel. Plaintiff alleges that he is ill-educated, on psych medication and has no knowledge of the law. In considering Plaintiffs Motion, the Court asks: (1) has the indigent Plaintiff made a reasonable attempt to obtain counsel or been effectively precluded from doing so; and if so, (2) given the difficulty of the case, does the plaintiff appear competent to litigate it himself? Pruitt v. Mote, 503 F.3d 647, 654-55 (7th Cir. 2007), citing Farmer v. Haas, 990 F.2d 319, 322 (7th Cir. 1993). Plaintiff has provided documentation that he has attempted to seek counsel on his own so the Court addresses the second portion of the inquiry set forth in Pruitt: "given the difficulty of the case, does the plaintiff appear competent to litigate it himself?" Here, Plaintiff is proceeding on an Eighth Amendment claim of deliberate indifference in the treatment of his skin condition. This claim is not unduly complex and relies largely on information within Plaintiff's own personal knowledge. Motion 25 is DENIED. (KM, ilcd) (Entered: 08/16/2016)" @default.
