- ilnd;;1:19-cv-02003_de13 RegisterActionDescriptionText "ORDER. Plaintiff's second motion for attorney representation 8 is denied without prejudice. Although Plaintiff states that he has contacted additional attorneys who have declined to represent himone of the reasons for the denial of his initial motionthis case remains in its initial stages. The court acknowledges Plaintiff's statements that he is wheelchair bound and on medication that causes drowsiness, had assistance from another inmate to file this complaint, and has no education beyond high school. This case is still in its early stages, however: Defendant has not yet answered, no discovery is currently being conducted, and the parties have not addressed their discovery plans or the possibility of settlement. Recruitment of counsel is therefore premature. See Romanelli v. Suliene, 615 F.3d 847, 852 (7th Cir. 2010) (observing that it was impossible for district court to determine pro se plaintiff's ability to litigate a matter while case "was still in its infancy"). Plaintiff may renew his motion should the case proceed to a stage where the need for counsel is more pressing. Signed by the Honorable Rebecca R. Pallmeyer on 7/10/2019. Notice mailed by judge's staff (ntf, ) (Entered: 07/10/2019)" @default.
