ORDER APPOINTING THE U OF D MERCY LAW SCHOOL FEDERAL
PRO SE LEGAL ASSISTANCE CLINIC FOR THE LIMITED PURPOSE
OF ENGAGING IN SETTLEMENT DISCUSSIONS
Thus far, Plaintiff has proceeded in this matter without the assistance of
counsel; however, on May 13, 2021, the Court conditionally granted, in part,
Plaintiff’s motions to appoint counsel. (ECF No. 25.) On May 14, 2021, the Court
reached out to the U of D Mercy Law School Federal Pro Se Legal Assistance
Clinic, which – should Plaintiff wants its assistance – has agreed to accept an
appointment for the limited purpose of engaging in settlement discussions.
Accordingly, the U of D Mercy Law School Federal Pro Se Legal Assistance
Clinic is APPOINTED for this limited purpose. The Clinic’s Director is invited to
reach out to my case manager (313-234-5200) to facilitate the initial contact with
Plaintiff.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated: May 17, 2021
