ORDER ON MOTION

The plaintiff filed a motion for appointment of counsel on July 9, 2007 (Court Doc. No. 5). The court notes that neither the facts underlying the plaintiff's claims for relief nor the applicable law is complex. Moreover, the pleadings filed in this case establish that the plaintiff is capable of presenting the necessary elements of his claims to this court and fail to demonstrate that there are exceptional circumstances justifying appointment of counsel. See Bass v. Perrin, 170 F.3d 1312, 1320 (11th Cir. 1999); Kilgo v. Ricks, 983 F.2d 189, 193 (11th Cir. 1993); Dean v. Barber, 951 F.2d 1210, 1216 (11th Cir. 1992). Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the motion for appointment of counsel be and is hereby DENIED. Done this 9th day of July, 2007.
