ORDER ON MOTION

The plaintiff filed a motion for appointment of counsel on July 24, 2006 (Court Doc.

No. 5). The court notes that the facts underlying the plaintiff’s claims for relief are relatively

simple and the law applicable to such claims is not complex. The pleadings filed in this case

likewise establish that the plaintiff is capable of presenting the necessary elements of his

claims to this court and fail to demonstrate that there are exceptional circumstances at this

time which justify appointment of counsel. See Bass v. Perrin, 170 F.3d 1312, 1320 (11th

Cir. 1999); Kilgo v. Ricks, 983 F.2d 189, 193 (11 Cir. 1993); Dean v. Barber, 951 F.2d th

1210, 1216 (11 Cir. 1992). Accordingly, it is th

ORDERED that the motion for appointment of counsel be and is hereby DENIED. 

Done this 25 day of July, 2006. th
