Stevenson v. Pramstaller et al
Doc. 13
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN SOUTHERN DIVISION BURVIN STEVENSON, Plaintiff, vs. DISTRICT JUDGE DENISE PAGE HOOD GEORGE PRAMSTALLER, et al., Defendants. ___________________________/ MAGISTRATE JUDGE MONA K. MAJZOUB CIVIL ACTION NO. 07-CV-14040-DT
ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION OF ORDER DENYING MOTION TO APPOINT COUNSEL This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff's Motion for Reconsideration of this Court's earlier Order denying without prejudice Plaintiff's Motion to Appoint Counsel. (Docket no. 12). Plaintiff contends that he suffers from several medical conditions that will make it difficult for him to represent himself in this action and that the prison legal writer who has been assisting him may not be able to timely assist him in the future. Plaintiff alleges in his Amended Complaint that he is being denied proper medical care for cataracts. After considering the proper factors, the Court again concludes that the appointment of counsel for Plaintiff in this action at this time is not warranted. See Lavado v. Keohane, 992 F.2d 601, 605-06 (6th Cir. 1993). IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Plaintiff's Motion for Reconsideration (docket no. 12) is DENIED.
