- ilcd;;1:16-cv-01340_de31 RegisterActionDescriptionText "TEXT ORDER entered by Chief Judge James E. Shadid on 4/11/17. Plaintiff has renewed his motion for appointment of counsel with evidence of his attempt to find counsel on his own. 20 Therefore, the Court must move on to the second inquiry, "given the difficulty of the case, does the plaintiff appear competent to litigate it himself?" Pruitt v. Mote, 503 F.3d 647, 654 (7th Cir. 2007), citing Farmer v. Haas, 990 F.2d 319, 322 (7th Cir. 1993). Plaintiff alleges the Defendants were deliberately indifferent to his hernia pain. See November 2, 2016 Text Order Merit Review. Plaintiff's complaint clearly set for the basis for his claim. 1 In addition, Plaintiff was able to adequately participate in the February 27, 2017 hearing pursuant to Rule 16 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Plaintiff should also be able to testify personally to the pain he experienced, his attempts to obtain help, and the responses he received, which can be used to show evidence of deliberate indifference. See Ledford v. Sullivan, 105 F.3d 354, 358 (7th Cir. 1997)(expert testimony not necessarily required to establish deliberate indifference). Finally, the Court has previously ordered the parties to provide relevant initial discovery including medical records. See February 28, 2017 Scheduling Order. In addition, the scheduling order provided additional information to assist a pro se litigant during discovery. Therefore, Plaintiff's motion is denied.[ 20](FDT, ilcd) (Entered: 04/11/2017)" @default.
