- ilcd;;1:17-cv-01444_de41 RegisterActionDescriptionText "TEXT ORDER: Entered by Judge Sara Darrow on 4/26/2018. Plaintiff filed a Motion to Request Counsel 34 . Plaintiff has no constitutional or statutory right to counsel in this case. In considering the Plaintiff's 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). Plaintiff previously made a showing that he attempted to obtain counsel on his own, but his present motion does not contain any information regarding his continuing efforts to do so. Plaintiff also does not provide any further information regarding his ability to litigate this case. As stated in the Court's Text Order entered February 12, 2018, Plaintiff has personal knowledge of the facts, he has been able to adequately communicate them to the Court, and he should be able to obtain relevant documents via the discovery process. Further, this case does not appear overly complex at this time. Accordingly, the Court finds that Plaintiff is capable of representing himself at this time. Plaintiff's motion 34 is DENIED with leave to renew. (LN, ilcd) (Entered: 04/26/2018)" @default.
