Civil Action No. 00-0181J.
February 28, 2007
ORDER
Plaintiff in this action has filed numerous requests for the court to appoint counsel to represent him in this matter. Although previous requests for counsel had been denied, the case is now postured for trial.

IT IS ORDERED this 28th day of February, 2007, that Michael A. Comber, Esq., Jerome J. Kalina, Esq., of the law firm of Jones Day, are appointed as counsel for Plaintiff on a pro bono basis for trial only.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that no further discovery is to be done in this case without good cause and leave of court.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that a status conference is to take place before the undersigned on March 19, 2007 at 3 pm in courtroom 7B.
