WILLIAM SULLIVAN, et al.,

Re: Dkt. No. 14

Defendants.

The request for appointment of counsel is denied. Petitioner has not shown a likelihood of

14

success on the merits, and the issues are not sufficiently complex that the ends of justice warrant

15

appointed counsel. Weygandt v. Look, 718 F.2d 952, 954 (9th Cir. 1983).

IT IS SO ORDERED.
