- ilcd;;1:16-cv-01381_de71 RegisterActionDescriptionText "TEXT ORDER Entered by Judge Sara Darrow on 9/15/2017. Plaintiff files Motion to Request Counsel 50 . The Plaintiff has no constitutional or statutory right to counsel in this case. In considering the 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). The Court previously found that Plaintiff made a reasonable attempt to obtain counsel on his own, but his current motion does not disclose if he has continued his efforts. Plaintiff has personal knowledge of the facts, and his correspondence with the Court has been appropriate thus far. Though Plaintiff alleges that he has been diagnosed as a seriously mentally ill inmate, the condition does not, at this point, appear to be affecting his ability to litigate this case. Therefore, the Court finds that Plaintiff is capable of representing himself at this time. Plaintiffs motion 50 is DENIED with leave to renew. Defendants Motion for Extension of Time 54 is GRANTED. Discovery shall be completed by October 2, 2017. Dispositive motions shall be filed by November 2, 2017. Defendants Motion to Substitute Counsel 56 is GRANTED. Clerk is directed to remove Christopher Westenberger as attorney of record for defendants E4187B9, 403B7F2, B034E4E, C39D5B4, F6014EF, A04158C, B04F89A, F17AF75, B1AB157, and F0A884C.
