MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
This is a pro se civil rights case filed by Gabriel Rosa-Diaz, a state prisoner. In
this case, Rosa-Diaz asserted claims against various Pennsylvania Department of
Corrections (“DOC”) officials (the “DOC Defendants”). On May 5, 2020, we entered
an order conditionally appointing counsel, and directed the Pro Bono Coordinator for
the Middle District of Pennsylvania Chapter of the Federal Bar Association to seek to
identify counsel willing to assist in this case. The Pro Bono Coordinator has since
advised the Court that he has been unable to find counsel willing to accept an
appointment in this action. Accordingly, the plaintiff is hereby advised that the Court
has been unable to identify counsel willing to assist in this case, and IT IS
THEREFORE ORDERED THAT the Court=s prior order conditionally appointing
