- ilcd;;2:16-cv-02007_de61 RegisterActionDescriptionText "ORDER entered by Judge Sara Darrow on 9/20/2017. IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED:1) The Macon Defendants' Motion to Dismiss [ECF 24] is GRANTED. The Clerk is to terminate them as parties. The Decatur Defendants Motion to Dismiss [ECF 27] is DENIED with leave to reassert the statute of limitations defense at summary judgment. 2) Plaintiff's [ECF 43], notice of subpoena to the Macon Defendants and their responsive motion to quash/motion to stay [ECF 44] are rendered MOOT. 3) Plaintiff's motion for recruitment of pro bono counsel [ECF 41], asserts that he is not well versed in the law and this is a complex case. The court does not possess the authority to require an attorney to accept pro bono appointments on civil cases such as this. Pruitt v. Mote, 503 F.3d 647, 653 (7th Cir. 2007). The most that the Court can do is to ask for volunteer counsel. Jackson v. County of McLean, 953 F.2d 1070, 1071 (7th Cir. 1992). In making this determination the court reviews the record as a whole, the nature of the claims, and the plaintiff's ability to pursue his claims through all phases of the case, including discovery and trial. Navejar v. Iyioloa, 718 F.3d 692, 696 (7th Cir. 2013). Plaintiffs deliberate indifference claim is not unduly complex and involves issues of which Plaintiff has direct, personal knowledge. Plaintiff appears competent, at this juncture, to prosecute the case himself. [ECF 41] is DENIED. 4) Plaintiffs Motion to Compel [ECF 42], directed to Decatur Memorial Hospital, not a party to this action, is DENIED. (KB, ilcd) (Entered: 09/20/2017)" @default.
