ORDER
Magistrate Judge Craig B. Shaffer
Pursuant to the Order of Reference dated December 9, 2011 (Doc. # 6),
this civil action was referred to the Magistrate Judge. This action comes before
the court to request that this case be placed on the list of cases for which counsel
may choose to volunteer. The court has reviewed the entire case and the
applicable law and is sufficiently advised in the premises.
While indigent civil litigants have no constitutional or statutory right to be
represented by a lawyer, Merritt v. Faulkner, 697 F.2d 761, 763 (7th Cir. 1983),
in its discretion the court “may request an attorney to represent any person
unable to afford counsel.” 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(1). The court may request legal
counsel for Ms. Schlecht by placing this case on the list for volunteer counsel.
Accordingly, the court requests that the Clerk of the Court place this case
on the list of cases for which counsel may choose to volunteer.
DATED at Denver, Colorado, this 11th day of July, 2012.
