ORDER
Plaintiff has filed a motion to appoint counsel in this action (Docket No. 4). Plaintiff's motion for appointment of counsel is denied at this time because there is insufficient information before the Court to make the assessment of plaintiff's claims under the standards required by Hendricks v. Coughlin, 114 F.3d 390, 392 (2d Cir. 1997), and Hodge v. Police Officers, 802 F.2d 58 (2d Cir. 1986), as issue has yet to be joined. Plaintiff's motion for appointment of counsel may be renewed after the defendant has answered the complaint.
SO ORDERED.
