Civil Action No. 05-73470.
March 10, 2006
ORDER DENYING RENEWED MOTION FOR APPOINTMENT OF COUNSEL
Before the Court is Plaintiff's Renewed Motion for Appointment of Counsel for Limited Purpose of Responding to Discovery. The court issued an order on January 3, 2006 denying plaintiff's first motion for appointment of counsel indicating that this court appoints counsel in a prisoner civil rights case only under exceptional circumstances and, in any event, only after the claims have survived a dispositive motion. There are no exceptional circumstances in this case that would warrant the appointment of counsel at this time, and plaintiff's claims still have not been tested by a dispositive motion. Accordingly, the court will deny plaintiff's renewed request for appointment of counsel.
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the motion is DENIED.
SO ORDERED.
